Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoir of Mary Whitall Our grandmother always spoke of her birth place with much affection, and her early letters reveal the enjoyment she found in the simple, rural life passed there The farm' contained three hundred and thirty-three acres. In one part of it, the ditch and fence of the old deer park, from which it was named, were still visible. Around the house, stiff lombardy pop lars and large sycamore and weeping-willow trees cast a pleasant shade, while numerous bushes of sweet roses added to its attractions. Behind the house was a large garden with fruits and vegetables, and old-fashioned peren nial flowers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thoughts Memorial of Mary Whitall Thomas, Born 1836, Died 1888 In the great sorrow that fills our hearts, at the death of our dear State President, it is hard to realize that for her it is not sorrow, but fullness of joy. What we do realize with a sharp heart ache is, that henceforth we shall see her amongst us no more. The gracious presence that was the fitting dwelling place of her bright, beautiful Spirit will never gladden us again. She was our own; every one of us felt that we had our own private right to her; every one of us had known her sympathy in sorrow, the strength of her strong, cheery faith in hours of discouragement, the inspiration of her consecration to God and to humanity at all times.

Download or read book Mary Wakefield written by Rosa Newmarch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Wakefield: A Memoir In writing this account Of Mary Wakefield I have kept two main objects in view: first to leave, not only for her many friends, but for those to whom she can never be more than a name, some intimate recollection Of her work and personality; secondly to vindicate her claim to be regarded as the originator Of the Competition Festival movement. While writing the book, I have been increasingly impressed by the conviction that a life SO fully and intensely lived, and SO scantily recorded in journals and letters, could only have been satisfactorily dealt with in the form of an autobiography. Had Mary Wakefield been spared to us a few years longer it is possible that she would have left us this - in her case especially - best of all memorials. The vision Of what she, with her ardent sympathies and shrewd, humorous outlook on the world, could have made of such a book, forces me to realize the comparative lifelessness of my own inadequate substitute. That up to the time of her death she was too fully occupied to spare time for writing her reminiscences is a matter for endless regret. Failing her autobiography, I commend this brief Memoir to all who have enjoyed, or will enjoy, the fruits Of her labours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin Comparatively little has been written about the life of Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin. The two chief authorities upon the subject are William Godwin and Mr. C. Kegan Paul. In writing the following Biography I have relied chiefly upon the Memoir written by the former, and the Life of Godwin and Prefatory Memoir to the Letters to Imlay of the latter. I have endeavoured to supplement the facts recorded in these books by a careful analysis of Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin's writings and study of the period in which she lived. I must here express my thanks to Dr. Richard Garnett, and to Mr. C. Kegan Paul, for the kind assistance they have given me in my work. To the first-named of these gentlemen I am indebted for the loan of a manuscript containing some particulars of Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin's last illness which have never yet appeared in print, and to the latter for the gift, as well as the loan, of several important books.

Download or read book Mary Crawford Brown written by James Strahan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Crawford Brown: A Memoir The aim has been to make the Memoir, as far as possible, a self-portraiture, that being the best way to secure perfect fidelity to life. Warm thanks are due to two of Mary's Parisian girl-friends and life long correspondents, Mlle. Helene Wehrlin, of Alsace, and Miss Ella Martin, of Newry, County Down, who had the wisdom to perceive the value of her letters, written to the one mostly, though not invariably, in French, and to the other nearly always in English. By preserving each a sheaf Of her intimate, self-revealing messages, and putting them all at the writer's disposal, they have considerably eased his onerous task. It is hoped that the numerous extracts from her French letters will read smoothly enough in English. Some fragments of her correspondence were also forwarded by Mary's Norwegian school-friend, Emma Thomas, now Mrs. Ramm. And after the Memoir was almost completed, some fifty letters written to her son Oliver during his period of service in Mesopotamia and convalescence in India came into the writer's hands. These are in some ways the most valuable of all. The other data which have been woven into the Memoir have been Obtained in the course of talks with Mary's kinsfolk in Belfast and at Donaghmore, with her comrades in Church and Zenana work, with her missionary friends at home on furlough, with her associates in musical and educational circles, and with young people whose Spirits were touched to finer issues by fellowship with her. Some of her friends, such as Dr. William Park and Dr. George Thompson, Mrs. R. H. Boyd and Miss Helen Waddell, have given their memories and impressions in letters as well as in conversation. In the use of the materials submitted to him the writer has, Of course, had a perfectly free hand, and he alone is responsible for the manner in which everything has been presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Memoir of Miss. Mary Helen Bingham: Who Died in the Seventeenth Year of Her Age Perhaps one reason which may be assigned for the encouragement recently given to juvenile religious bio graphy, is, the hope that it will prove an antidote to the moral poison of novels and romances; and not only lead to the cultivation of mind and morals, but draw the rising generation to an acquaintance with their own hearts, and to a saving knowledge of God. Fiction does not carry the conviction, nor can it fix the abiding influence, of fact. Fiction requires the aid of ornament, and is generally arrayed in a splendid dress, to render it fascinating to juvenile minds. In the perusal of these hot-bed productions, that which is the most cal culated to increase moral depravity, and to confirm habits of iniquity, imperceptibly enters the heart; while the scanty spice of Christian morality, with which a few of them are sprinkled, is generally regarded as common-place and unnecessary; or rejected as enthu siasm and less interesting than fable or disingenuously and perversely pleaded as proofs that the works We a moral tendency, when repelling the reproofs, and with standing the entreaties, of their friends, tho kindly endeavour to dissuade them from perusing such dele terious productions.

This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lady Mary Wortley Montagu and Her Times Hen I undertook to write a Memoir of Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, I had little hope that any con siderable gleanings, in the shape of unpublished letters, would have been left by former workers in the same field. By the kindness of the Earl of Harrowby, however, I was permitted to examine the Wortley Montagu Manuscripts at Sandon Hall, and among these I found four or five hundred unpublished letters, many of great interest, relating to the first half of the eighteenth century. Lady Mary was responsible for upwards of a hundred Of these, and Mr. Wortley for fifty or sixty, the remainder being written by relations, or by friends of the family. My heartiest thanks are due to Lord Harrowby for permission to copy the most interesting letters, and also to reproduce his whole length portrait of Lady Mary by Richardson, which forms the frontispiece to this book.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Reynolds: A Case of Double Consciousness Finally, through the kindness of Rev. Dr. John V. Reynolds and his brother William, who are still living in Meadville, where their aunt spent with them the last twenty-five years of her life, I am able to corroborate facts and from these various sources to supply the fol lowing account of these two persons in one body - two distinct lives antipodal from every mental and moral point of view. Mary Reynolds was born in England in 1793, and, when four years old, with her father and mother and their family left their home in Birmingham to settle in Pennsylvania. Leaving in New York the remainder of the family, the father and son started out into the wilderness and choose a spot on the banks of Oil Creek, in Venango County. The whole surround ing country was an unbroken forest. Twelve miles southward were the few inhabitants of Franklin, while six miles to the north lived Jonathan Titus, the proprietor of the land on which Titusville now stands.
