  • St. Ives by Robert Louis Stevenson
    St. Ives By Robert Louis Stevenson 1 The following tale was taken down from Mr. Stevenson’s dictation by his stepdaughter and amanuensis, Mrs. Strong, at intervals between January 1893 and October 1894 (see Vailima Letters, pp. 242–246, 299, 324 and 350). About six weeks before his death he laid the story aside to take up Weir of Hermiston. The thirty chapters of St. Ives which he had written (the last few of them apparently unrevised) brought the tale within sight of its conclusion, and the intended course of the remainder was known in outline to Mrs. Strong. For the benefit of those readers who do not like a story to be left unfinished, the delicate task of supplying the missing chapters has been entrusted to Mr. Quiller-Couch, whose work begins at Chap. XXXI. {0} [S. C.] 2 CHAPTER I—A TALE OF A LION RAMPANT It was in the month of May 1813 that I was so unlucky as to fall at last into the hands of the enemy. My knowledge of the English language had marked me out for a certain employment. Though I cannot conceive a soldier refusing to incur the risk, yet to be hanged for a spy is a disgusting business; and I was relieved to be held a prisoner of war. Into the Castle of Edinburgh, standing in the midst of that city on the summit of an extraordinary rock, I was cast with several hundred fellow-sufferers, all privates like myself, and the more part of them, by an accident, very ignorant, plain fellows.

  • Understanding and Helping the Grieving Child Safe Crossings - a Program for Grieving Children at Providence Hospice of Seattle
    Understanding and helping the Grieving Child Safe Crossings - A Program for Grieving Children at Providence Hospice of Seattle Each of us will face the death of a significant person at some time. We seek other people, books, counseling or other outlets for support during the grief process. But who helps a child deal with a death or an impending death of someone they care about? Naturally children turn to other significant persons – family, friends, neighbors, relatives, and teachers. Although children may understand and respond to terminal illness and to death differently than adults, helping the grieving child is not that different from helping the grieving adult. Your interaction can have an important impact in helping the child deal with a significant person’s terminal illness and death in a healthy way. Here are some insights and suggestions GENERAL FACTORS Children grieve as part of a family. When someone is diagnosed with a terminal illness, it affects the way in which the entire family functions. Roles and responsibilities will adjust to accommodate new needs in your family. In addition to grieving the illness of a significant person, your children will also grieve the many small and large changes that follow, such as: Changes in daily routine Decreased emotional availability of adult caregivers Increased individual responsibilities within the family Changes in the ability of the sick person to interact as they have in the past Children re-grieve. Caregivers often express surprise when their children shift from “being fine” to having difficulties in school or relationships as a result of the illness or death.

  • Father's Stories
    “Beauty is not who you are on the outside, it is the wisdom and time you gave away to save another struggling soul, like you.” ~ Shannon L. Alder A Tale of Our Fathers 1976: Vincent and Father… “You shouldn’t waste your time on an old man like me…” Father turned his head aside to smother a racking cough with a scrap of cloth. “I’m past worrying about. Just leave me be and let me die in peace.” “You are most certainly not going to die. But you have never made the easiest of patients, Father,” Vincent reminded him gently as he carefully raised the older man’s head to feed him the last spoonful of soup from the bowl beside the bed. “You always take care of us when we are sick. Now it’s our turn to look after you. So lie still and regain your strength. The worst is over.” “I guess so. But I don’t like feeling so weak and helpless.” Father lay back fretfully against the pillows and closed one eye to focus on his son better. “You really do make one heck of a nursemaid, Vincent. I’ll give you that.” He chuckled weakly. “But I guess it takes a lot of courage — more than I have right now — to say no to you, when your mind’s made up to something. I didn’t fancy dying just yet, anyway.” He rolled his head to glance at his other carer. “What do you say, Mary? Did we do a good job with raising our boy here?” “I think we did just fine.” Mary smiled, looking up from wringing out a cloth over a wooden bowl.

  • Purloined Letter (Part One)
    FROM THE BAG We’ll always have Paris. Rick Blaine CasaBlanca (1942) pictured: The Eiffel Tower, as seen from Trocadéro Palace during the Paris Exposition in 1889. THE PURLOINED LETTER (PART ONE) Edgar A. Poe† Lawyers should read this old but still accessible detective story for three reasons, at least. First, while it is often cited by legal writers – practitioners, judges, scholars – for the proposition that contra- band can be hidden in plain sight, some of them seem to lack an accurate recollection of the elements of the story they are citing. We lawyers can do better than that. Second, the longstanding focus on the hidden-in-plain-sight idea has obscured the story’s citeabil- ity for other aspects of law and lawyering. Consider, for example, the anecdote of Abernethy at the end of the first part of the story. See page 91 below. It will resonate with any lawyer who has family or friends who value good legal advice but don’t do so in dollars. Third, it is a pleasure to read – it is a good tale, well told. That without more should be sufficient reason to get to know it better. The first part of the story – up to the cliffhanger – is printed here. The second part will appear in the next issue of the Green Bag. We have preserved, to the best of our abilities, the punctuation and spelling in the original. See Edgar A. Poe, The Purloined Letter, in THE GIFT: A CHRISTMAS, NEW YEAR, AND BIRTHDAY PRESENT 41- 50 (1845). A disclaimer: Republication of this ancient work does not constitute endorsement of Poe’s unkind characterization of the people of Naples – indeed, we emphatically decry it.

  • The Military Chaplains' Review Is Published Quarterly
    DA PAM 165-109 MILITARY CHAPLAINS' REVIEW DEATH AND DYING SPRING, 1976 PREFACE The Military Chaplains* Review is designed as a medium in which those interested in the military chaplaincy can share with chaplains the product of their experience and research. We welcome articles which are directly concerned with supporting and strengthening chaplains professionally. Preference will be given to those articles having lasting value as reference material. The Military Chaplains' Review is published quarterly. The opin- ions reflected in each article are those of the author and do not neces- sarily reflect the view of the Chief of Chaplains or the Department of Army. Articles should be submitted in duplicate, double spaced, to the Editor, Military Chaplains' Review, United States Army Chaplain Board, Fort Wadsworth, Staten Island, New York 10305. Articles should be approximately 8 to 18 pages in length and, when appro- priate, should be carefully footnoted. EDITOR Chaplain (LTC) John J. Hoogland May 1971-June 1974 Chaplain (LTC) Joseph E. Galle III July 1974- A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH Considerable literature has been published on the subject of death. Thanatology courses attract large numbers of high school and college students as do conferences and symposiums attract others. Televi- sion has highlighted the subject over major networks. All would indi- cate that there has been a growing interest in recent years to talk openly about death and dying. Despite the increasing interest, however, there remains a signifi- cant number who seldom reflect on death. To some, perhaps many, death seems so far in the future that it is irrelevant to current living.

  • The Short-Story
    THE SHORT-STORY BY EDGAR ALLAN POE INTRODUCTION I DEFINITION AND DEVELOPMENT Mankind has always loved to tell stories and to listen to them. The most primitive and unlettered peoples and tribes have always shown and still show this universal characteristic. As far back as written records go we find stories; even before that time, they were handed down from remote generations by oral tradition. The wandering minstrel followed a very ancient profession. Before him was his prototype—the man with the gift of telling stories over the fire at night, perhaps at the mouth of a cave. The Greeks, who ever loved to hear some new thing, were merely typical of the ready listeners. In the course of time the story passed through many forms and many phases—the myth, e.g. The Labors of Hercules; the legend, e.g. St. George and the Dragon; the fairy tale, e.g. Cinderella; the fable, e.g. The Fox and the Grapes; the allegory, e.g. Addison's The Vision of Mirza; the parable, e.g. The Prodigal Son. Sometimes it was merely to amuse, sometimes to instruct. With this process are intimately connected famous books, such as "The Gesta Romanorum" (which, by the way, has nothing to do with the Romans) and famous writers like Boccaccio. Gradually there grew a body of rules and a technique, and men began to write about the way stories should be composed, as is seen in Aristotle's statement that a story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end. Definitions were made and the elements named.
