This, I hope, is sufficient apology for my apparent heedlessness of your request ... my handwriting is so far from pretty that I think you will be satisfied with the accompanying stanza ...” Again, signed in full. Akers (1832 – 1911) published her first collection of verse in 1855, under the pseudonym “Florence Percy.” Her career as a popular poet ran parallel with her accomplishments as a journalist and editor. She served a two year appointment in the War Department and included among her circle of acquaintances prominent feminists such as Paulina Kellogg Wright Davis. Shortly after this poem was first published under her pseudonym in 1860, her claim to authorship was challenged by a New Jersey poetaster and leather dealer, Alexander Ball, and although her claim was vindicated, the controversy was the subject of much public interest.

DECEMBER 1919 No. 6 NOTES OF THE MONTH IN a series of,very remarkable essays,* which are well described as “ outspoken,” the Dean of St. Paul’s grapples, from a very independent standpoint, with many problems of the present day, a number of which are, indeed, not related to one another, except ,, by the fact that they may, almost all of them, be „ designated as topical. Perhaps the only two not ' falling under this head are those dealing with Cardinal Newman and St. Paul. The two last essays of the book are certainly not likely to attract less attention than the remainder; though it may be questioned whether the Dean is not at his best in some of the others, notably on Our Present Discontents, on the Birth Rate, and on the Future of the English Race.

  • Self-Portraiture in Borrow and the Powys
    — 1 — Published in la lettre powysienne numéro 5, printemps 2003, see : http://www.powys-lannion.net/Powys/LettrePowysienne/number5.htm Stonehenge Leaving the bridge I ascended a gentle declivity, and presently reached what appeared to be a tract of moory undulating ground. It was now tolerably light, but there was a mist or haze abroad which prevented my seeing objects with much precision. I felt chill in the damp air of the early morn, and walked rapidly forward. In about half an hour I arrived where the road divided into two at an angle or tongue of dark green sward. “To the right or the left?” said I, and forthwith took, without knowing why, the left-hand road, along which I proceeded about a hundred yards, when, in the midst of the tongue or sward formed by the two roads, collaterately with myself, I perceived what I at first conceived to be a small grove of blighted trunks of oaks, barked and grey. I stood still for a moment, and then, turning off the road, advanced slowly towards it over the sward; as I drew nearer, I perceived that the objects which had attracted my curiosity, and which formed a kind of circle, were not trees, but immense upright stones. A thrill pervaded my system; just before me were two, the mightiest of the whole, tall as the stems of proud oaks, supporting on their tops a huge transverse stone, and forming a wonderful doorway. I knew now where I was, and laying down my stick and bundle, and taking off my hat, I advanced slowly, and cast myself — it was folly, perhaps, but I could not help what I did — cast myself, with my face on the dewy earth, in the middle of the portal of giants, beneath the transverse stone.
