"The Box" April 15th 1885 Dear Mr Grossman I cannot resist sending you a little word of heartiest congratulations---for winning sweet Edwina's love.

Mrs Lillie speaks of you so cordially that we feel we know you already---and our affection for Edwina warms our hearts to all whom she loves. I do not know when anyone's happy news has so appealed to me and I am so glad and thankful for dear Edwina and can congratulate you so unreservedly. How her love honors you. What a blessed gift it is. Very earnestly do I pray for you both---wishing you <hr /> all that is good---and a hope---which time and the experience of life may deepen and stengthen. My dear husband's friendship for Mr. Booth would cause me to feel a warm interest in all that concerns him or his and---the tenderness of my affection for Edwina makes her happiness a personal joy to me.

Webster Hall "America's Finest Club Residence" Detroit Pittsburg March 25, 1927 My dear Mrs Skeel: Your letter brings me great satisfaction. I was expecting a pleasant reply to my inquiry, but you say a number of things that give me special pleasure. I am here in Detroit for a few weeks, serving as Minister ad Interim in the First Congregational Church, and I am revising a book manuscript for the press. I am a vagrant from the last of November till June 1 - a month as chaplain of the Lake Placid Club, a month as lecturer on Abraham Lincoln, and so on, while keeping three or four kinds of thing going in the papers and magazines and all the time working on some book. Last summer I wrote a Life of Abraham Lincoln for young people. It was called "The Great Good Man" and ran in eight issues of the Youths Companion. It went fairly well and is now just out in an attractive volume, so far as type and cover go, and it may sell. Both the editor of the Youths Companion and the publishers of my books want me to follow it next summer with a companion book on Washington. The time is opportune. We are approaching the 200th anniversary of his birth. So I have promised to do it and have been assembling material. But I have no such knowledge of Washington as I have of Lincoln. I have been reading some of the Washington biographies by way of background, and I waken to the fact that with all his manifest and manifold faults, Parson Weems was intereating, and knew human values, and could tell a story. In N.Y. I made use of the collection which your father and brothers made, and Mr. Nichols, my good friend, gave me your address and told me what you were doing. I was tempted to write but hesitated. In Boston I went to the N. Eng. Hist. library where I am no stranger, and when your brother there repeated the suggestion, I hesitated no more. <hr /> 2 And now behold the juxtaposition of our interests. First, that I come at the eleventh hour to a meager share in what you are doing and what your brother Paul did in his Washington, and to your affection for Parson Weems. And then, the Plimpton Press is my neighbor. For my summer home (now, alas, my only domicile) is a Foxbore and the Plimptons are my neighbors and visitors. Mr. Plimpton would have real pleasure, I think, in carrying out for me any request of yours. And Martha's Vineyard is so situated that when you go to Boston via New Bedford you pass very near my summer home. And now I am sorry that we shall not meet as you return home. I am a delegate (Convener of the Congregational Delegation) to the World Conference of Faith and Order to assemble in Lausanne August 1, and am sailing July 16, and returning about September 8 Otherwise I could hope that on some trip to Boston you could stop at Mansfield and taxi to my door and see my Lincoln collection at Foxboro and let me learn from you about Parson Weems and Washington. Since November 1925 I have been alone. My dear little wife after forty beautiful years with me died then. But I keep my home, and have a housekeeper in summer, and my friends come to me. My children have summer homes adjacent. My son Bruce who writes "The Man Nobody Knows" and other best-sellers is across the road from me; my other children close at hand I am giving more autobiography than may be essential. I am hoping that this boys' Life of Washington will be finished before I sail and begin to appear in the Youths Companion in the first issue in November, and appear in book form about the middle of January. The Companonn cuts about half, and I think <hr /> 3 it would be rather more than certain that nothing I might purloin from you could be used there, even if I wished. And probably in this book nothing that you are disposed to guard would have appropriate place. But I am greatly in the mood to learn. If you were to feel quite sure that your volumes would be out in or before October, it might possibly be that next June when I am in Foxboro you would be willing that your nephew should loan me a set of the proof sheets. And if you were to instruct him to withhold any chapters or pages, I would understand that. Or, if you were to say to me that matter relating to any particular group of topics you wished particularly to guard, your confidence in me would be justified, I think. But if the volumes are so nearly out as that I could have a set in the summer that would be ideal. I do not know what I shall do with Washington. I have not quite reached the end of my Lindoln work, having still chips to work up into literature of sorts. But I am gathering more material that I can use in a boys' Life of Washington, and there is time still for a more ambitious work about him than what I have now begun to write. I have a dream of doing that possibly in 1928 or 1928, in ample time to get established before 1932 and before too much competition. This however is on the lap of the gods. I am telling you much more than you care for about my plans. But this has a relation on the one hand to your generous offer to assist me, and on the other to your very proper wish to guard those discoveries that you and your <hr /> 4 brother have made. Now let me felicitate you on your near approach to the completion of your labor of love. I can imagine what a solemn joy it is to you to have brought this to pass. And you must have had a lot of fun out of it. Who knows that I may not myself do what I was hoping you had done, and, after I have done my little bit toward Washington, write a little biography of Weems and his times and his books? You would seem to have assembled just the material that would temp a man as frail as I. When, since Eve, did any woman offer such fruit of the tree of knowledge as you in your Bibliography and Letters with notes and comments? But better, why not do it yourself? Who could do it so well? This is four times as long a letter as I intended to write, and I am busy. I am telling the story of Abraham Lincoln in good sane language against a background of women-his grandmothers, mother, stepmother, sister, step-sisters, sweet-hearts and wife. No easy task. And THE WOMEN LINCOLN LOVED are scattered about me in their final revision. Early in April the printer gets them, and I shall be so fondly glad to bid them goodbye. I return to them now, with sincerest thanks for your letter. And do not, I beg of you, lend me anything you would rather not. But I should like to show you my Lincoln things at Foxboro and learn from you about Washington and Weems. How late are you at the Vineyard? Sincerely yours, William E. Barton If you have the slightest inclination to write a life of Weems - I shall nere do so Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.

If you were to feel quite sure that your volumes would be out in or before October, it might possibly be that next June when I am in Foxboro you would be willing that your nephew should loan me a set of the proof sheets. And if you were to instruct him to withhold any chapters or pages, I would understand that. Or, if you were to say to me that matter relating to any particular group of topics you wished particularly to guard, your confidence in me would be justified, I think. But if the volumes are so nearly out as that I could have a set in the summer that would be ideal. I do not know what I shall do with Washington. I have not quite reached the end of my Lindoln work, having still chips to work up into literature of sorts. But I am gathering more material that I can use in a boys' Life of Washington, and there is time still for a more ambitious work about him than what I have now begun to write. I have a dream of doing that possibly in 1928 or 1928, in ample time to get established before 1932 and before too much competition. This however is on the lap of the gods. I am telling you much more than you care for about my plans. But this has a relation on the one hand to your generous offer to assist me, and on the other to your very proper wish to guard those discoveries that you and your <hr /> 4 brother have made. Now let me felicitate you on your near approach to the completion of your labor of love. I can imagine what a solemn joy it is to you to have brought this to pass. And you must have had a lot of fun out of it. Who knows that I may not myself do what I was hoping you had done, and, after I have done my little bit toward Washington, write a little biography of Weems and his times and his books? You would seem to have assembled just the material that would temp a man as frail as I. When, since Eve, did any woman offer such fruit of the tree of knowledge as you in your Bibliography and Letters with notes and comments? But better, why not do it yourself? Who could do it so well? This is four times as long a letter as I intended to write, and I am busy. I am telling the story of Abraham Lincoln in good sane language against a background of women-his grandmothers, mother, stepmother, sister, step-sisters, sweet-hearts and wife. No easy task. And THE WOMEN LINCOLN LOVED are scattered about me in their final revision. Early in April the printer gets them, and I shall be so fondly glad to bid them goodbye. I return to them now, with sincerest thanks for your letter. And do not, I beg of you, lend me anything you would rather not. But I should like to show you my Lincoln things at Foxboro and learn from you about Washington and Weems. How late are you at the Vineyard? Sincerely yours, William E. Barton If you have the slightest inclination to write a life of Weems - I shall nere do so Status The current transcription status of a document or a page.

Well may your sorrows brethren flow, Your tears your cheeks bedew, 1. Not in the battle's strife he fell, Nor ling'ring couch of pain, For shared he not your ev'ry woe, And died he not for you. But by an impious fiend of hell, Shot! madly thro' the brain. <hr /> 4 CHORUS L'istess tempo.

Like HIM of old, he died and bled, A nation's life to save. Chorus. <hr /> CHOICE GEMS SELECTED FROM OLIVER DITSON COMPANY'S LATEST LISTS OF NEW MUSIC VOCAL. Song o' Cowans. Db.4. db to gb. McCartney 50. A pretty song, with words in the Scotch dialect. Suitable for a soprano voice; and, if we mistake not, a song that will be much in vogue among admirers of good modern vocal compositions. Maid Dreaming. G 4. d to g. Macy. 40. The oddness of style manifest in this new song, as well as the excellence of both poetry and melody, should place it at once among the most desirable of recent song productions. The piano accompaniment is of itself an attraction. On the Swinging Branches. F. 4. c to F. G.F. Wilson. 35. "On the Swinging Branches," or the "Song of the Bobolink," is one of the latest of Mr. Wilson's compositions. It is of an unusually pleasing nature, tasteful and graceful, while the melodious waltz-refrain makes it specially attractive as to the popular requirements. Earth's Fairest Flower. Db. 4. c to F. Orton Bradley. 40. One of the best modern songs for mezzo-soprano or baritone. It has a graceful movement in 9-8 tempo, with melody and piano accompaniment alike agreeable. Villanelle. (Peasant's Song.) Eb. 5. Eb to b. Dell' Acqua. 50. "Villanelle," or the peasant's song-- J'ai vu passer Hironelle ("I've seen the swallows pass by me")--is one of the most acceptable of the modern songs. The translation is by Harrison Millard. Both French and English version are given. It is recommended to sopranos. He Leadeth Me. Duet. Eb. 4. S. Salter. 35. A fine sacred duet for alto and tenor. We commend it to choir-singers. the accompaniment is for either piano or organ. There's a Friend for Little Children. C. 4. c to g. E.s. [Hosmer?]. 50. A solo which many who desire suitable pieces to be sung to a Sabbath gathering will be pleased to obtain. The accompaniment for either piano or organ is interesting. The piece can be used to advantage by a choir-soloist for special occasions. It is a gem for home use as well. Try it. Titania's Cradle. Sopr. or Ten. F. 5. E to a. Lehman. 35 Titania's Cradle. Mezzo-Sopr. or Bar. Eb. 5. d to g. Lehman. 35. The well-known words from Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream" ("I know a bank whereon the wild thyme blows") are here melodiously and artistically set by Liza Lehman. It is a good song for an experienced vocalist. Published in two different keys, as above. The Children's Hour. Eb. 4. bb to Eb. Peterson. 40. A pretty poem set to equally attractive and very tuneful music. 'Tis that I Love Thee. Duet. D. 4. (Lohr.) Vane. 60. A most agreeable duet for two voices of medium compass. Try it. Love's Signal. Ab. 4. c to F. A.F. Burnett. 60. One of the most enjoyable of recent songs. The words are by Fred E. Weatherly, the well-known English writer, and the music by Burnett will find hosts of admirers among the lovers of the best English songs. The sentiment is very pretty:-- "Only a wee worn kerchief that lay in my trembling hands, As I sat by the Window dreaming and looked on the moonlit lands." Waiting to welcome her Boy. G. 2. d to F# J.W. Wheeler. 40. Popular song and chorus by a popular author. The sentiment is good and the song is worth a place in your collection of vocal gems of this kind. At the French Ball. Song with Dance. F. 3. c to F. D.F. Braham. 40. "I went to the ball, the naughty French ball, And I danced with a little grisette; She was not over stout, and not very tall, And so pretty I soon called her 'pet'." The Darkey Musketeers. March-song. F. 3. c to F. V.W. Wheeler. 40. Another new comic song by the author of "The Colored Four Hundred." Bright and catchy. He isn't on the job just now. Eb. 2. Eb to F. McGlennon. 40. Humorous song. Just the kind to provoke merriment. Spanish Cradle Song. Fm. 4 Eb to Db. Boott. 35. One of Mr. Boott's latest contributions to the list of excellent modern songs. Both Spanish and English versions are given. The song is one of the most noticeable of recent compositions. It is for a voice of medium compass. As a Tale that is told. Bb. 4. bb to Eb. W.F. Sudds. 50. An excellent song for low voice, either alto or baritone, and we commend it to all who admire good verse set to equally good music. Sooner or Later. Eb. 4. bb to Eb. W. F. Sudds. 35. In this song Mr. Sudds has admirably set the verses of Stewart Allen to an original melody, which expresses the sentiment of the poem in a musicianly and agreeable manner. The accompaniment is for either organ or piano. A fine song for low voice. Wit and Wine. G. 4. d to E. E. M. Chesham. 60. The story of an ancient king who made merry with his courtiers, and knighted his serving man. It is a fine, hearty, rollicking song for baritone. Try it. Sweetheart, my Song is come. F. 3. b to G. F.S. Sommers. 35 The Touch of the Wand. G. 3. d to E. F.S. Sommers. 40 Chansonette. Eb. 3. bb to Eb. F.S. Sommers. 35. The above three songs by Frederick S. Sommers are the work of a musician whose music will repay the learner in the most agreeable manner. The piano parts are no less satisfactory and musicianly than the melody itself and the general treatment of the themes. Suffer Little Children. D. 4. c# to D. Roeder, 50. A new sacred song by Martin Roeder; teacher of singing at the N.E. Conservatory of Music. Her Last Good Bye. F. 2. c. to F. Delamere. 35. A song and chorus in the popular vein. New and pleasing. Take up Thy Cross. Eb. 4. ab to F. C.E. B. Price. 50. A sacred song for mezzo-soprano or baritone. Excellent for a choir soloist. Accompaniment suitable for either piano or organ. Forsaken. Ballad. G. 4. d to F# Millard. 40. The good taste and exquisite treatment of the theme so beautifully expressed in the verses by Mary C. Preston, are characteristic of Harrison Millard. This is his latest song; and to all singers and mezzo-soprano or tenor voices we say, try this new ballad, and you will not regret the trial. The melody and the graceful, delicate piano accompaniment captivate the hearer at once. Don't fail to secure this latest song by Millard. The Boat with My True Love's Name. F. 2. c to D. Collin Coe. 40. A new song by Collin Coe. It has a pretty waltz-refrain, and will probably be popular as a light, melodious "boat-song," or a "catchy" song and refrain of the college type. Simple, dainty, and melodious. Here is a verse, to show the sentiment:--"My true heart is a brave, brave girl; She lives by the wide, wide sea, And when I sail on the ocen She watches and waits for me. I have a boat so trim and neat,--For sailing she's won her fame,--And I call my boat the 'Bonnie Bell,' For that's my true love's name." "Over the sea, over the sea, My Bonnie Bell goes sailing with me." There's a Green Hill far Away. Eb. 4 Eb to G. J.C. Warren. 50. A sacred song for soprano.

McCartney 50. A pretty song, with words in the Scotch dialect. Suitable for a soprano voice; and, if we mistake not, a song that will be much in vogue among admirers of good modern vocal compositions. Maid Dreaming. G 4. d to g. Macy. 40. The oddness of style manifest in this new song, as well as the excellence of both poetry and melody, should place it at once among the most desirable of recent song productions. The piano accompaniment is of itself an attraction. On the Swinging Branches. F. 4. c to F. G.F. Wilson. 35. "On the Swinging Branches," or the "Song of the Bobolink," is one of the latest of Mr. Wilson's compositions.

Orton Bradley. 40. One of the best modern songs for mezzo-soprano or baritone. It has a graceful movement in 9-8 tempo, with melody and piano accompaniment alike agreeable. Villanelle. (Peasant's Song.) Eb. 5. Eb to b. Dell' Acqua. 50. "Villanelle," or the peasant's song-- J'ai vu passer Hironelle ("I've seen the swallows pass by me")--is one of the most acceptable of the modern songs. The translation is by Harrison Millard. Both French and English version are given. It is recommended to sopranos. He Leadeth Me. Duet. Eb. 4. S. Salter. 35. A fine sacred duet for alto and tenor.

Mezzo-Sopr. or Bar. Eb. 5. d to g. Lehman. 35.

Weatherly, the well-known English writer, and the music by Burnett will find hosts of admirers among the lovers of the best English songs. The sentiment is very pretty:-- "Only a wee worn kerchief that lay in my trembling hands, As I sat by the Window dreaming and looked on the moonlit lands." Waiting to welcome her Boy. G. 2. d to F# J.W. Wheeler. 40. Popular song and chorus by a popular author. The sentiment is good and the song is worth a place in your collection of vocal gems of this kind. At the French Ball. Song with Dance. F. 3. c to F. D.F. Braham. 40.

The melody and the graceful, delicate piano accompaniment captivate the hearer at once. Don't fail to secure this latest song by Millard. The Boat with My True Love's Name. F. 2. c to D. Collin Coe. 40. A new song by Collin Coe. It has a pretty waltz-refrain, and will probably be popular as a light, melodious "boat-song," or a "catchy" song and refrain of the college type. Simple, dainty, and melodious. Here is a verse, to show the sentiment:--"My true heart is a brave, brave girl; She lives by the wide, wide sea, And when I sail on the ocen She watches and waits for me. I have a boat so trim and neat,--For sailing she's won her fame,--And I call my boat the 'Bonnie Bell,' For that's my true love's name."
