Weaver, Emily. : Paper and Scissors in the Schoolroom. Milton Bradbury. USA. 1893. Papers boards decorated title to front. Pp77, [4] Advert publishers books. Drawings throughout text illustrating templates for classroom use of paper folding. Two neat ownership inscriptions on front free end papers:- B. Burgoyne Chapman to his friend Gordon dated Aug 26 1915, Kulong [district in Shanghai], later inscription of "Rattenbury", which is probably that of H B Rattenbury, or a family member. Pages are a little age toned, some light damp staining affecting the edge of a few pages, in good clean order. Benjamin Burgoyne Chapman, (1886-1964) born in Australia, entered the Methodist Wesleyan ministry in 1913 and worked in China from 1913 - 1931. He returned in 1936 after travelling to India and Japan. Harold Burgoyne Rattenbury (1878-1961) published author and Methodist missionary in Burma and China in the 1930/ 40's. A book with an ownership story perhaps more interesting than that written by the author.
