Report of the Librarian
216 American Antiquarian Society [Oct., REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN "My library was dukedom large enough. " —Tempest, i:2 HEN Joseph's brethren came to his adopted W country during the seven lean years, they were made happy by discovering an abundance of food stored up for their need. And so it is with the historians and college professors from the far corners of the United States who flock to us all the year long, but especially during the summer vacation and the Christmas holidays, eager for our books and newspaper files, our manuscripts, maps and prints, for which they have hungered during the months when they had available only the less fortunately stored historical granaries of their various institutions. From Florida to Vancouver they have journeyed to Worcester in ever-increasing numbers to buy with their enthusiastic appreciation the rich grain of our histori- cal, biographical, and literary resources. As we watch them at their work, we cannot but share their enthu- siasm when they find here the varied materials they need for the scholarly work in which they are engaged. A Seventh Day Adventist historian from Washing- ton found our collections particularly rich in the rare periodicals, pamphlets, and broadsides relating to the Millerite delusion. A business historian was delighted with our wealth of editions of the early manuals of bookkeeping which he needed for his bibliography. A Yale graduate' student delved into our source material on the question of war guilt at the beginning of the Civil War. A Radcliffe graduate was made happy with an abundance of material on the practice of medicine in Colonial days.

A FAMOUS PHOTOGRAPHER AND HIS SITTERS. BY RUFUS ROCKWELL WILSON. HIGH above the noises of a great city, in the top story of one of the old buildings that girt Scollay Square, in Boston, there labors daily a man who is probably the oldest active photographer in the world. His name is Josiah Johnson Hawes. He was born in Sudbury, Massachusetts, February 20, 1808 and is consequently more than ninety years old. He received his education in the common schools, studied art, and painted miniatures, portraits and landscapes until 1841. He then became interested in the invention of Daguerre and, with Albert S. Southworth, made for many years the finest daguerreotypes and photographs in America. He has occupied his present studio for upward of half a century. In these rooms have posed hundreds of men and women whose fame time has already made secure. Charles Dickens used to drop in upon Mr. Hawes, and loved to spend a leisure hour in a place that was to him even then a curiosity shop. Phillips Brooks posed here only a few years before his death, and General Butler’s picture is one that Mr.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 20 AT 3:00 PM OR THURSDAY, MAY 21 AT 6:30 PM DISCUSSION GUIDE: THE BEEKEEPER OF ALEPPO By Louisa May Alcott ABOUT THE AUTHOR Alcott was a daughter of noted Transcendentalist Amos Bronson Alcott and Abigail May Alcott. Louisa's father started the Temple School; her uncle, Samuel Joseph May, was a noted abolitionist. Though of New England parentage and residence, she was born in Germantown, which is currently part of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She had three sisters: one elder (Anna Alcott Pratt) and two younger (Elizabeth Sewall Alcott and Abigail May Alcott Nieriker). The family moved to Boston in 1834 or 1835, where her father established an experimental school and joined the Transcendental Club with Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. During her childhood and early adulthood, she shared her family's poverty and Transcendentalist ideals. In 1840, after several setbacks with the school, her family moved to a cottage on two acres along the Sudbury River in Concord, Massachusetts. The Alcott family moved to the Utopian Fruitlands community for a brief interval in 1843-1844 and then, after its collapse, to rented rooms and finally to a house in Concord purchased with her mother's inheritance and help from Emerson. Alcott's early education had included lessons from the naturalist Henry David Thoreau but had chiefly been in the hands of her father. She also received some instruction from writers and educators such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Margaret Fuller, who were all family friends. She later described these early years in a newspaper sketch entitled "Transcendental Wild Oats," afterwards reprinted in the volume Silver Pitchers (1876), which relates the experiences of her family during their experiment in "plain living and high thinking" at Fruitlands.

^JOURNAL OF THE RUTGERS UNIVERSITY LIBRARY VOLUME XXII JUNE 1959 NUMBER 2 LETTERS TO AN "ENCHANTED GUEST": W. D. HOWELLS TO EDMUND GOSSE BY CLARA AND RUDOLF KIRK We take pleasure in expressing our appreciation to Professor W. W. Howells of Harvard University for permission to print the letters by his grand~ fathery W. D. How ellsy in the Rutgers University Library. They may not be reprinted without the written permission of Professor Howells. We also wish to thank Dr. Philip Gosse for allowing us to reprint a letter from Ins fathery Sir Edmund Gossey and some excerpts from the Gosse letters now in the Houghton Library y Harvard. Dr. Gosse obtained for us a copy of a portrait of his father owned by the Brotherton Libraryy Leeds Universityy Leedsy England. N a collection of manuscripts recently purchased by the Rutgers Library are four holograph letters of William Dean Howells I to Edmund Gosse that are here reproduced for the first time. Two of these letters were written on September 9, 1883, and on January 2, 1884, from Howells' Boston home to his friend in Lon- don, a few months after his return from a year abroad. These letters, touching on a variety of subjects, are important to those who may be interested in the many-sided friendship of Howells and Gosse. The other two letters, dated April 14 and 15, 1904, from Howells to Gosse, are merely hastily written notes concerning a luncheon engagement in London. Howells, his wife, and his daughter Mildred had arrived in England to attend the ceremony at Oxford in June at which Howells was to receive the honorary degree of Doctor of Letters.
