There was in that chapter a single sentence making reference to the fact that Dr. Briscoe’s oldest daughter, Margaret, “attended the prestigious Doane Academy”. A direct descendent of Dr. Briscoe, Ms. Dolly Buswell knew that she had a stack of letters that were connected with Sotterley and Dr. Briscoe. The substance of those letters is essentially this- guidance provided by Dr. Briscoe to his daughter, Margaret, who was in the 1840s attending an Episcopalian girls boarding school, St. Mary’s Hall, located in Burlington, New Jersey. (St. Mary’s Hall continues today as a coeducational day school known as the Doane Academy.) To give contrast, and thereby give greater meaning, to the letters written by Dr Briscoe to his daughter, I have included letters written home to St. Mary’s County by Kate Dent, a boarder in 1850’s at the Episcopalian Hannah More Academy located north of Baltimore. Having read these letters, some questions came to mind which I will explore in this chapter. How did the educational opportunities for boys differ from the educational opportunities for girls? How did children travel from their homes in Southern Maryland to the boarding schools they would be attending? What was on the minds of the parents of these students who were away from home? What was on the minds of the students themselves who were away from home for perhaps the first significant length of time in their lives? These questions, and others, will be explored in this chapter “School Days.” I probably don’t have the best answers to these questions; but perhaps by showing what I do know or suspect, someone will come forward with additional clarifying material. Samuel C.P. Baldwin, Jr. Summer, 2016 2 R. BRISCOE AND HIS EPISCOPALIAN FAITH D Maria Briscoe Crocker, the granddaughter of Philip Briscoe (who was, in 1840, headmaster at Charlotte Hall Academy) said this about her relative: “Dr. Briscoe was a very religious man, hospitable and scholarly. A strict keeper of the sabbath and all biblical precepts. He lived in a manner befitting the traditions of Sotterley but with greater simplicity”. The letters that Dr. Briscoe wrote to his 15 year old daughter Margaret, who was at the time attending St. Mary’s Hall in Burlington, New Jersey, demonstrate the constant attention that Dr. Briscoe paid to matters of religious guidance. These letters are but a few examples: . Sotterley, May 19, 1845 My anxious care and earnest prayers for you and all with whom I have to do, are that you and they may ever be able, (?) sound judgement; sober reflection, and above all a constant looking unto God as the only sure foundation of wisdom and strength, so to subdue, arrange, and order all your affections, desires, and actions as, not only to escape the unhappy consequences of a similar act of parental ingratitude, but also the more pungent corroding of the here and hereafter of the 1. Dr. Walter Hanson hapless soul that lives but to die. Stone Briscoe And now allow me prayerfully to commit Courtesy of Historic you to the safe keeping of the Lord; particularly Sotterley during your absence from home. May His blessing rest upon you. May the Holy Spirit draw near around you and draw you near unto him… and by His sanctifying influence upon your heart make you thoroughly His through time and Eternity. Walter Hanson Stone Briscoe to Maggy Briscoe Sotterley, February 17, 1846 I will now take up the last item of your last letter, as the subject of the greatest importance and therefore demanding our first attention toward (?) your Confirmation and although I do not know that I can add anything new to the instructions given you and the opinions expressed to you before you left home, yet as you have opened your mind to me and asked me for the advice upon this 3 yet as you have opened your mind to me and asked me for the advice upon this subject I will endeavor to renew to you some of the reasons why spiritual matters should not be neglected or deferred longer than the period at which our age brings us individually and personally responsible; and more particularly after we become sensible of our responsibility. First then, our everlasting salvation is at stake; and as our spiritual interests are as much above our temporal as the heavens are above the earth so ought our care for that interest to be above all other considerations; and as in the midst of life we are in death (and this we see verified around us every day) we know not when, where, or how soon we may be cut off, so ought we to look only to the present time of each day allowed us as the only time of prosperation (?) for the great change that is to take us from time to eternity. And how can this preparation (?) be affected in us but by following the commands of our Lord. Through what may be then has He commanded us to do that we may be saved. Has He not commanded us to observe His Sacraments under (?) of his displeasure. How then can any neglect or discard them with safety. Look to it my Dear Daughter and be easily persuaded and satisfied in your own mind. You know our anxiety for your safety in this respect, yet do not I pray you suffer yourself to be influenced in so important a matter by the fears, wishes, or anxiety of us your best earthly friends, or all the world combined. You are now at an age to know right from wrong in spiritual things, and are consequently alone responsible to your heavenly father for the disposition and improvement of the time and opportunity He may grant you here to prepare for the hereafter. To Him and Him alone you must stand or fall. To render you a fit subject for the Holy Communion you should in the first place be fully persuaded in your own mind of the necessity of obeying the injunction of the Lord in relation thereto, and in the second that you really and today desire to become a faithful disciple of the Lord Jesus. You should also feel and believe in (?) until unworthiness; but in the sufficiency and willingness of the Almighty to assist and sustain you in your Christian walk. You should look at your Lord in His (?) and sufferings for you with the rest of mankind and love him for these sufferings. These and such like feelings and affections toward yourself and your Lord are the fundamental (?) my Dear child of a Christian life, and if you can realize this to be your stall (?) of heart and mind I think you need not fear but go boldly to your God, throw yourself upon Him and continually beg in prayer to Him that assistance for your support that all who have a conscience feel themselves in need of and you will not be disappointed. Nothing that I have said do I wish you to constrain into the belief that I wish you to be Confirmed except upon the thorough conviction of your own mind of its propriety in your case, and from a conscious belief that it is your duty; and after all should you feel timid about it in consequence of not having such friends to counsel you as you confide in, you had better perhaps defer it until you return home, should it please the Lord to spare you so long. I sincerely hope however should you do this that you will return with your mind fully made up to examine (?) subject (?)

En effet, en automne 2017, une vague de dénonciations déferle sur la place publique et peu à peu, les frontières de ce qui est acceptable ou pas semblent se redéfinir au sein de plusieurs sociétés. En partant de cette constatation sociétale, nous avons cru remarquer une reprise des enjeux entourant le mouvement social #Metoo dans les séries télévisées américaines de fiction. Ce mémoire souhaite illustrer et analyser l’évolution des représentations des crimes sexuels et du harcèlement sexuel inspirée par le mouvement #Metoo. En reprenant les grandes lignes de ce mouvement, cette étude s’attarde sur son impact sur la société nord-américaine.

  • The Man in Ratcatcher
    The Man in Ratcatcher By H. C. Mcneile The Man in Ratcatcher I. THE MAN IN RATCATCHER I "'E ain't much ter look at, Major, but 'e's a 'andy little 'orse." A groom, chewing the inevitable straw, gave a final polish to the saddle, and then stood at the animal's head, waiting for the tall, spare man with the bronzed, weather-beaten face, who was slowly drawing on his gloves in the yard, to mount. Idly the groom wondered if the would-be sportsman knew which side of a horse it was customary to get into the saddle from; in fact one Nimrod recently—a gentleman clothed in spotless pink—had so far excelled himself as to come to rest facing his horse's tail. But what could you expect these times, reflected the groom, when most of the men who could ride in days gone by, would ride no more: and a crowd of galloping tinkers, with rank cigars and ranker manners, had taken their places? When he thought of the men who came now—and the women, too—to Boddington's Livery Stable, renowned for fifty years and with a reputation second to none, and contrasted them with their predecessors, he was wont to spit, mentally and literally. And the quods— Strewth! It was a fair disgrace to turn out such 'orses from Boddington's. Only the crowd wot rode 'em didn't know no better: the 'orses was quite good enough—aye! too good—for the likes o' them. "Let out that throat-lash a couple of holes." The groom looked at the speaker dazedly for a moment; a bloke that knew the name of a single bit of saddlery on a horse's back was a rare customer these days.

    ROSE IN BLOOM A Sequel to "Eight Cousins" By Louisa May Alcott Preface As authors may be supposed to know better than anyone else what they intended to do when writing a book, I beg leave to say that there is no moral to this story. Rose is not designed for a model girl, and the Sequel was simply written in fulfillment of a promise, hoping to afford some amusement, and perhaps here and there a helpful hint, to other roses getting ready to bloom.

"They are the Campbells, waiting for their cousin, who has been abroad several years with her uncle, the doctor," whispered one lady to another as the handsomest of the young men touched his hat to her as he passed, lugging the boy, whom he had just rescued from a little expedition down among the piles.

  • National Morgan Horse Show July ?6, 27
    he ULY 9 8 MORGAN HORSE NATIONAL MORGAN HORSE SHOW JULY ?6, 27 THE MORGAN HORSE Oldest and Most Highly Esteemed of American Horses MORGAN HORSES are owned the nation over and used in every kind of service where good saddle horses are a must. Each year finds many new owners of Morgans — each owner a great booster who won- ders why he didn't get wise to the best all-purpose saddle horse sooner. Keystone, the champion Morgan stallion owned by the Keystone Ranch, Entiat, Washington, was winner of the stock horse class at Wash- ington State Horse Show. Mabel Owen of Merrylegs Farm wanted to breed and raise hunters and jumpers. She planned on thoroughbreds until she discovered the Morgan could do everything the thoroughbred could do and the Morgan is calmer and more manageable. So the Morgan is her choice. The excellent Morgan stallion, Mickey Finn, owned by the Mar-La •antt Farms, Northville, Michigan, is another consistent winner in Western LITTLE FLY classes. A Morgan Horse on Western Range. Spring Hope, the young Morgan mare owned by Caven-Glo Farm Westmont, Illinois, competed and won many western classes throughout the middle-west shows the past couple of years, leaving the popular Quar- ter horse behind in many instances. The several Morgan horses owned by Frances and Wilma Reichow of Lenore, Idaho, usually win the western classes wherever they show. J. C. Jackson & Sons operate Pleasant View Ranch, Harrison, Mon- tana. Their Morgan stallion, Fleetfield, is a many-times champion in western stock horse classes. They raise and sell many fine Morgan horses each year.

I will spare you my unhappy infant years, unloved by the wife of my late uncle and I will not dwell on my school days, which were harsh. But imagine, dear audience, that I have survived these times, and have now decided to begin a journey, to take my first steps in life as a young adult. I have just advertised myself as a governess in the newspaper – and to my joy, I have received a reply. Imagine me now, on my journey to my new employer, who remains, for a short while still, completely unknown to me. The trotting of hooves lulls me into a slumber and I dream of what my future may bring me… Fade to black. The hooves get louder at first; then fade out – to be replaced by the sound of a crackling fire.
