WCP5161

The page is stamped "37" and the text has been struck through by a large tick. Although there is no heading, the account originates from ARW’s London publisher Swan Sonnenschein & Co. Ltd., founded in 1878 by William Swan Sonnenschein (1855-1931) a son of Adolphus Sonnenschein, a teacher and writer originally from Moravia, and his first wife Sarah Robinson Stallybrass. In the light of the hostility to Germans during the First World War William Swan Sonnenschein changed his surname to Stallybrass for the remainder of his life, as did some of his family. The document is unsigned, but the author is likely to be F. R. Stallybrass (see WCP5163 in the same hand), presumably a relative of the founder of the publishing house.

Wallace, A. R. (1898). Vaccination a delusion. Its Penal Enforcement a Crime: Proved by the official evidence in the reports of the Royal Commission London, Swan Sonnenschein & Co. Ltd. This monographic criticism of vaccination was published in the Spring of 1898, then incorporated into ARW's The Wonderful Century published by Swan Sonnenschein & Co. Ltd. later that year.

"1906", perhaps in error for 1905, as the account is dated 30 June [190]5 and appears to be for the year 1904-1905.
