   I have two books being copied by the Strong Museum (Rochester, NY) and one
by the Bancroft Library.
   One book with the same title of "Fancy Drinks" is:

FANCY DRINKS
AND
POPULAR BEVERAGES
HOW TO PREPARE AND SERVE THEM
BY
THE ONLY WILLIAM (William Schmidt)
Dick & Fitzgerald, NY
155 pages
1891, 1896

   There is no Rickey, no Highball, no Yale cocktail, and no Martini.  Well,
sort-of.

Pg. 26:
     _22.  Holland's Pride._  (Martini??--ed.)
A mixing glass 2/3 full of ice,
     3 dashes of gum,
     2 dashes of bitters,
     1 dash of absinthe
     2/3 of Holland gin,
     1/3 of vino vermouth
Stir well, strain,and serve.

     _23.  Manhattan Cocktail._
Half a tumblerful of cracked ice,
     2 dashes of gum,
     2 dashes of bitters,
     1 dash of absinthe,
     2/3 drink of whiskey,
     1/3 drink of vino vermouth.
(A little maraschino may be added.)
Stir this well, strain, and serve.
