As gold marks the standard of a nation's money, so does Newport hold the pivot of American watering-places. The name of Newport has become a generic term, with an unnumbered radiating family. Every State has its Newport. From the rough Atlantic to the placid Pacific, from the rocky coasts of Maine to the sandy shores of Florida, one finds an hundred children of the mother- town. The Newport of the West, the Newport of the South, and the Newport of the mountains, all translated mean a summer resort with alleged attractions reckoned from the pinnacle which is given by the " City by the Sea." But there is but one Newport. Nature made but one; the mould broke; and to-day she stands alone, protected in her exclusiveness. Shall I tell you the history of this grand old town? Shall I tell you how William Coddington purchased the whole township of the Narragansett Indians, not with the " dollars of our daddies," but with old coats, hoes, rakes, scrap- iron and other junk-shop commodities? Shall I claim for the old place a com- mercial importance which years ago outranked the metropolis, or shall I give the suppositions which have supposed that the Norsemen landed upon its shores, and perhaps took a solitary dive into the then not fashionable bi-eakers? Need I tell of its romantic career up the line of evolution to the proudest of summer cities? All this would be unnecessary, for the A B C of history has told you of its early conquests, and the World of fashion has for a score of years sang its praises. In its reputative sense Newport is a Summer City, not of transients, but of long-stay people. In the rank and file of its past and present half-year citizens stand the names which have ])een and are being engraved on the stones of history. Intelligence, art, music, wealth and beauty meet upon its soil in happy combination. The Avealth of the Empire State can be seen on a pleasant afternoon riding over the beautiful avenues, strolling on the beach, or frolicking in the surf. Wall Street and Fifth Avenue, Fair Harvard and stately Yale, blue-blooded Boston, army and navy, foreign ministers, ambassadors, princes and princesses, make this beautiful city the play-ground of the upper realms of society. New- port is the underspriug of summer fashion, the inside wheel which regulates the ifs and buts of society life. To be a Newport belle is a proud position for fair 10 NEWPORT VILLA OWNERS k4M.% ^..

Extent about 200 items in 1 box (0.42 linear feet) Accession Info MS.2013.5; Gift of Linda Apicelli, accepted January 2013. Historical Note Vernon Court Junior College in operation from September 1963 to January 1972. It occupied the mansions Vernon Court, Fairlawn, and Stoneacre, as well as other mansions in the Ruggles Avenue area. It was associated with The Hatch Preparatory School for Boys, which had occupied Vernon Court since 1956. In January 1972 the College faced financial difficulties that forced it to close. At the time of closure the school had 157 enrolled students and 80 employees. All three school buildings were eventually sold, including Stoneacre Field, a 3.75 acre plot, for $61,000 to local plumbing contractor, D. Dixon Donovan. Stoneacre, the former W. Goadby Loew villa, had been demolished to make room for new dormitories, which were never built. Donovan bought other former Vernon Court properties along Ruggles Avenue as well. When the Vernon Court mansion was sold, the property was put back on the tax rolls. Fairlawn is now The Pell Center of Salve Regina University.

  • Hornblower's Ships
    Names of Ships from the Hornblower Books. Introduction Hornblower’s biographer, C S Forester, wrote eleven books covering the most active and dramatic episodes of the life of his subject. In addition, he also wrote a Hornblower “Companion” and the so called three “lost” short stories. There were some years and activities in Hornblower’s life that were not written about before the biographer’s death and therefore not recorded. However, the books and stories that were published describe not only what Hornblower did and thought about his life and career but also mentioned in varying levels of detail the people and the ships that he encountered. Hornblower of course served on many ships but also fought with and against them, captured them, sank them or protected them besides just being aware of them. Of all the ships mentioned, a handful of them would have been highly significant for him. The Indefatigable was the ship on which Midshipman and then Acting Lieutenant Hornblower mostly learnt and developed his skills as a seaman and as a fighting man. This learning continued with his experiences on the Renown as a lieutenant. His first commands, apart from prizes taken, were on the Hotspur and the Atropos. Later as a full captain, he took the Lydia round the Horn to the Pacific coast of South America and his first and only captaincy of a ship of the line was on the Sutherland. He first flew his own flag on the Nonsuch and sailed to the Baltic on her. In later years his ships were smaller as befitted the nature of the tasks that fell to him.
