Howard J. Garber Letter Collection This Collection Was the Gift of Howard J
Howard J. Garber Letter Collection This collection was the gift of Howard J. Garber to Case Western Reserve University from 1979 to 1993. Dr. Howard Garber, who donated the materials in the Howard J. Garber Manuscript Collection, is a former Clevelander and alumnus of Case Western Reserve University. Between 1979 and 1993, Dr. Garber donated over 2,000 autograph letters, documents and books to the Department of Special Collections. Dr. Garber's interest in history, particularly British royalty led to his affinity for collecting manuscripts. The collection focuses primarily on political, historical and literary figures in Great Britain and includes signatures of all the Prime Ministers and First Lords of the Treasury. Many interesting items can be found in the collection, including letters from Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Robert Browning Thomas Hardy, Queen Victoria, Prince Albert, King George III, and Virginia Woolf.

Jack the Ripper - Anonymous Murderer
List of Suspects for Pleasant Places of FL meeting November 2, 2013 Jack the Ripper - Anonymous Murderer It is important to note that Sir Melville Macnaghten, Chief Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police in 1889 named three suspects: (1) Aaron Kosminski, a Polish Jew, who lived in Whitechapel and was known to hate women and have strong homicidal tendencies. He was admitted to a lunatic asylum in March 1889; (2) Michael Ostrogg, who was a well-known criminal who spent the majority of his life in prison for theft. He was a con man and sneak thief with 25 or more aliases, and was eventually transferred to a lunatic asylum where he registered himself as a Jewish doctor; and (3) Montague John Druitt, a teacher at a boarding school in Blackheath who was dismissed from his teaching job in late Nov 1888 because of an unspecified ‘serious offence.’ He drowned himself in the Thames in Dec 1888. Macnaghten destroyed all the documents pointing to Druitt. In fact, all Sir Melville Macnaghten's personal files - he headed the CIS and had first hand knowledge of Scotland Yard's entire investigation - simply "vanished" shortly after his death. Inspector Abberline, heading the Ripper investigation, discredited Macnaghten’s suspects. He named his own suspect, George Chapman, whose real name was Severin Klosowski, a Polish barber’s assistant in Whitechapel who poisoned 3 wives and was hanged April 7, 1903. NOTE: Although he named Chapman, Chief Inspector Abberline's presentation walking stick is still preserved at Bramshill Police Staff College where the inscription reveals that the stick was presented to Abberline by his team of detectives at the 'conclusion of the inquiry'. -

The Work and Play of Rhyme in Victorian Verse Cultures, 1850-1900 by Adam Martin Mazel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (English Language and Literature) in the University of Michigan 2014 Doctoral Committee: Professor Yopie Prins, Chair Associate Professor Kali Israel Professor Marjorie Levinson Professor Adela Pinch Dedication To my Mom and Dad With Love ii Acknowledgments I am so grateful for Professor Yopie Prins, my dissertation chair, for helping me, for being patient with me, and for encouraging me throughout this project. The merits of my dissertation are largely due to her intellectual generosity. I am also particularly grateful for my wonderful dissertation committee: Professors Adela Pinch, Marjorie Levinson, and Kali Israel. They were always available when I needed support, and the generous time and energy they gave me fed the growth of this project and my growth as an intellectual. I also owe special thanks to Professor Kerry Larson, for helping the development of Chapter One, and Professor Sid Smith, as well as the Poetry and Poetics Workshop—Professor Gillian White and Professor Petra Kuppers and Julia Hansen and Aran Ruth—for helping the development of Chapter Four. To my writing group—the “A. B. C.’s of D.”: Ben Pollak and Carolyn Dekker—you are such a great team and great friends! I thank the members of my second writing group—Ben Graham, Tim Greene, and Sylvia Tita—as well as Paul Barron and Ray McDaniel of the Sweetland Writing Center, all of whom helped my writing considerably. -
Our Public Schools, Their Influence on English History
LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS. To-day and here the fight's begun, Of the great fellowship you're free; Henceforth the school and you are one, And what you are, the race shall be. " Chaque peuple organise 1'Education a son image, on vue de ses moeurs et de ses habitudes ; 1'education, a son tour, reagit sur 1'etat social." ED. DEMOLINS A quoi tient la Superiorite des Anglo-Saxons. OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS THEIR INFLUENCE ON ENGLISH HISTORY CHARTERHOUSE RUGBY ETON ST. PAUL'S HARROW WESTMINSTER MERCHANT TAYLORS' WINCHESTER BY J. G. COTTON MINCHIN < " " Author of Old Harrow Dayt", Tht Growth of Freedom in the Balkan Peninsula" LONDON: SWAN SONNENSCHEIN & Co., LIMITED PATERNOSTER SQUARE 1901 TO MY ESPECIAL THREE. PREFACE. FEW things in the perusal of biographies have struck me more than the manner in which the influence of the school and its surroundings on the subject of the biography, who spent his boyhood there, has been ignored. Until the publication of the School Registers of Charterhouse, Eton, Harrow, Merchant Taylors', Rugby, St. Paul's, Westminster, and Winchester (all excellent, though some are pre-eminently so), it was sometimes more than difficult to trace the school of a statesman or author. As few of the Registers go back to the seventeenth century, it is not even now easy to locate the school of some distinguished men, who are said to have been at public schools during the seventeenth or early part of the eighteenth century. Sir Francis Dashwood (Chancellor of the Exchequer) is an instance in point, though I have satisfied myself that he was a Commoner at Winchester. -
