                  <text>Sarah Josepha Buell Hale (1788-1879) was a major literary figure of the 19th century. Born in New Hampshire, she was educated at home and by her mother and brother, Horatio. She married a young lawyer, David Hale, who died in 1822. As a result she had to find a way to support herself and her five children. She utilized her literary skills and published a collection of poems with mild success followed by her first novel entitled &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; in 1827. &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; advocated the repatriation of slaves to Africa by means of Liberia and called for New England style morality throughout the nation. In 1828 she began editing &lt;em&gt;The Ladies’ Magazine of Boston&lt;/em&gt;, the first magazine for women to be edited by a woman. It had its financial difficulties and was united with &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt; (the majorly influential women’s magazine of the 19th century) in 1837. Godey’s was based in Philadelphia and she eventually she moved to Philadelphia from Boston to become more involved in her editorship of the magazine. These magazines acted as her platform to promote her moral agendas. She was a major proponent of equal education for women; however she was not a suffragist. She pushed for men and women to remain within their god-given spheres and believed women needed education to be better moral upholders of the home. Aside from being the editor of &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt;, she wrote many books and poems while lobbying for educational and social reform. Hale is also the author of &lt;em&gt;Mary had a Little Lamb&lt;/em&gt; and the main person responsible for making Thanksgiving a national holiday (it was previously only celebrated in her native New England). Hale died in 1879 and was survived by four children (her oldest son died in 1839).</text>

              <text>Dear Madam&#13;
&#13;
New York. Dec 5. 1850.&#13;
&#13;
I can hardly hope, that you will excuse in me, what I&#13;
cannot excuse myself; in the long delay of my answer to your polite&#13;
letter. I must confess that I have had, from the very beginning&#13;
of my literary career a decided aversion against all personal&#13;
publicity. I succeeded for considerable time in keeping my person&#13;
in the shade, declining all the requests in that respect of [F.?] Rassmann,&#13;
Schindel and other editors of literary Biographies and works of&#13;
that kind. At last, as one gets accustomed to every thing, I have&#13;
suffered - not caused - to be [?] under my real name in the&#13;
well known: Conversations Lexicon [Lexikon] der Gegenwart , [DE:?] Leipzig,&#13;
Brockhaus 1840 (Continuation of F. Liebers Encyclopedia Americana)&#13;
The details of my life as given there, are essentially correct; only the&#13;
name given there as Adolfine, ought to be changed in: Albertine - if it is&#13;
worthwhile to change such a trifling thing. May I refer you to this&#13;
work, dear Madam? I have no doubt that it is to be got in Philadelphia&#13;
and that, if you do not read German yourself, you can&#13;
easily get it translated for you. However as this article was written more&#13;
than ten years ago, I add the following details refering [referring] to the &#13;
ten intervening years.&#13;
&#13;
They were in literary respect principally devoted to the study&#13;
of American history. The result was a history of John Smith in [DE: the] F. Raumer's&#13;
Historisches Taschenbuch, Brockhaus 1845 and a larger historical&#13;
work on the Colonization of New England. (Geschichte der Colonisations &#13;
von Neu England Leipz, Brockhaus 1847) The outbreak&#13;
of the revolutions in Germany immediately afterwards,&#13;
which destroyed of course for some time all literary interests&#13;
operated against it and it may be said without vanity, that this&#13;
book, which I consider as the best I have ever written, received [DE: from] by&#13;
accidental circumstances less attention than it deserved; [DE: the] and it would&#13;
have received at a more favourable time. The&#13;
Germans, who know everything, [DE: h]are perfectly ignorant about&#13;
the history of this country before the Revolution. I had a strong&#13;
desire to make them acquainted with it and feel very much [DE: ?]&#13;
disappointed. - My next publications were in the English language.&#13;
The article on Slavic languages and literature refered [referred] to in the Convers. Lex. where it out to have been&#13;
mentioned that it was originally written for and appeared in the Biblical&#13;
Repository, a theological periodical, started by my husband,&#13;
was revised [DE: ,] and partly rewritten by me and the history of the&#13;
Slavic literature conducted to the present time; it was published&#13;
under the title: Historical View of the Languages and Literature of the Slavic&#13;
nations New York. Putnam. 1850. Immediately afterwards a small&#13;
novel appeared: Heloise or the unrevealed secret N.Y. Appleton which&#13;
it at the same time published in Germany under the title: Eigen&#13;
sinn des Herzens. Another tale is printing now and will appear at Appletons:&#13;
"Life's Discipline, a tale of the Annals of Hungary.&#13;
With perfect esteem&#13;
I remain my dear Madam&#13;
Therese Robinson.&#13;
&#13;
Life's Discipline -&#13;
Heloise or the &#13;
Unrevealed Secret&#13;

Love -&#13;

                  <text>Sarah Josepha Buell Hale (1788-1879) was a major literary figure of the 19th century. Born in New Hampshire, she was educated at home and by her mother and brother, Horatio. She married a young lawyer, David Hale, who died in 1822. As a result she had to find a way to support herself and her five children. She utilized her literary skills and published a collection of poems with mild success followed by her first novel entitled &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; in 1827. &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; advocated the repatriation of slaves to Africa by means of Liberia and called for New England style morality throughout the nation. In 1828 she began editing &lt;em&gt;The Ladies’ Magazine of Boston&lt;/em&gt;, the first magazine for women to be edited by a woman. It had its financial difficulties and was united with &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt; (the majorly influential women’s magazine of the 19th century) in 1837. Godey’s was based in Philadelphia and she eventually she moved to Philadelphia from Boston to become more involved in her editorship of the magazine. These magazines acted as her platform to promote her moral agendas. She was a major proponent of equal education for women; however she was not a suffragist. She pushed for men and women to remain within their god-given spheres and believed women needed education to be better moral upholders of the home. Aside from being the editor of &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt;, she wrote many books and poems while lobbying for educational and social reform. Hale is also the author of &lt;em&gt;Mary had a Little Lamb&lt;/em&gt; and the main person responsible for making Thanksgiving a national holiday (it was previously only celebrated in her native New England). Hale died in 1879 and was survived by four children (her oldest son died in 1839).</text>

                  <text>Sarah Josepha Buell Hale (1788-1879) was a major literary figure of the 19th century. Born in New Hampshire, she was educated at home and by her mother and brother, Horatio. She married a young lawyer, David Hale, who died in 1822. As a result she had to find a way to support herself and her five children. She utilized her literary skills and published a collection of poems with mild success followed by her first novel entitled &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; in 1827. &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; advocated the repatriation of slaves to Africa by means of Liberia and called for New England style morality throughout the nation. In 1828 she began editing &lt;em&gt;The Ladies’ Magazine of Boston&lt;/em&gt;, the first magazine for women to be edited by a woman. It had its financial difficulties and was united with &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt; (the majorly influential women’s magazine of the 19th century) in 1837. Godey’s was based in Philadelphia and she eventually she moved to Philadelphia from Boston to become more involved in her editorship of the magazine. These magazines acted as her platform to promote her moral agendas. She was a major proponent of equal education for women; however she was not a suffragist. She pushed for men and women to remain within their god-given spheres and believed women needed education to be better moral upholders of the home. Aside from being the editor of &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt;, she wrote many books and poems while lobbying for educational and social reform. Hale is also the author of &lt;em&gt;Mary had a Little Lamb&lt;/em&gt; and the main person responsible for making Thanksgiving a national holiday (it was previously only celebrated in her native New England). Hale died in 1879 and was survived by four children (her oldest son died in 1839).</text>

                  <text>Sarah Josepha Buell Hale (1788-1879) was a major literary figure of the 19th century. Born in New Hampshire, she was educated at home and by her mother and brother, Horatio. She married a young lawyer, David Hale, who died in 1822. As a result she had to find a way to support herself and her five children. She utilized her literary skills and published a collection of poems with mild success followed by her first novel entitled &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; in 1827. &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; advocated the repatriation of slaves to Africa by means of Liberia and called for New England style morality throughout the nation. In 1828 she began editing &lt;em&gt;The Ladies’ Magazine of Boston&lt;/em&gt;, the first magazine for women to be edited by a woman. It had its financial difficulties and was united with &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt; (the majorly influential women’s magazine of the 19th century) in 1837. Godey’s was based in Philadelphia and she eventually she moved to Philadelphia from Boston to become more involved in her editorship of the magazine. These magazines acted as her platform to promote her moral agendas. She was a major proponent of equal education for women; however she was not a suffragist. She pushed for men and women to remain within their god-given spheres and believed women needed education to be better moral upholders of the home. Aside from being the editor of &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt;, she wrote many books and poems while lobbying for educational and social reform. Hale is also the author of &lt;em&gt;Mary had a Little Lamb&lt;/em&gt; and the main person responsible for making Thanksgiving a national holiday (it was previously only celebrated in her native New England). Hale died in 1879 and was survived by four children (her oldest son died in 1839).</text>

              <text>Galveston, June 14th 1847.&#13;
&#13;
My dear Mother&#13;
&#13;
I received yesterday your letter of May last&#13;
and write at once to caution you about some matters you mention&#13;
in it.&#13;
I have doubted whether Mr. Johnson intends to reside here&#13;
permanently and I still doubt it - but Judge Watrous has told me &#13;
that his, Mr. J's views have altered much since his visit to New&#13;
Orleans, where the amount of business in prospect has been so&#13;
great as to encourage him to remain in Texas, until he has&#13;
made his fortune. I expect the result of it will be that he&#13;
will spend the winters here in doing business and the summers &#13;
at the North in procuring it&#13;
My partnership with him is well known here - and&#13;
his not speaking about [at?] the North was nothing singular. He&#13;
had contracted for the building of our office before he left - which&#13;
is not done - and I shall, as I had always expected, remain&#13;
with Judge Watrous, who is to have a very pretty and convenient&#13;
suite of rooms for offices, library [etc.]&#13;
You need not be concerned about me in my&#13;
connection with Mr. Johnson. Whether it exists and remains or &#13;
not, I am not especially anxious - for all the business he&#13;
obtains for Texas will unquestionably be mine also - and if&#13;
&#13;
he does not come out, I can stand very [DE: very] well by&#13;
myself. I have received offers from several of the &#13;
leading members of the bar here to enter into partnership&#13;
with them - and if that with Mr. J is dissolved, I&#13;
may accept some one of them - although if it should be&#13;
possible I prefer to stand by myself.&#13;
The caution I wish to give to you &amp; José&#13;
is to say nothing about Mr. Johnson &amp; your opinions&#13;
to Judge W. or any one. I have said nothing myself &#13;
and for this reason - that it may &amp; probably is all&#13;
a mistake - and I should be especially sorry to suggest&#13;
anything in the conduct or character of Mr. J.&#13;
which should not prove strictly true - and also necessary&#13;
- and it is certainly not necessary.&#13;
I wish too you would dismiss your&#13;
fears about me - and remember that I am a Yankee,&#13;
with some education &amp; common sense, some experience,&#13;
some capabilities of managing - and that if I am not&#13;
now able to take care of myself, I never shall be&#13;
Everything is going on well here - the&#13;
climate is far - infinitely less oppressive than in &#13;
Richmond &amp; Phila. - the town healthy and pleasant&#13;
- and I am in less danger of sickness here than in &#13;
the North - If the yellow fever should come, which is&#13;
very doubtful - I shall go down the island - at a distance&#13;
from the city, [or?] on the shore of Galveston Bay. &#13;
I have a promise of very good business&#13;
- am rather respected here [etc.?] - and feel at present the &#13;
very dignified Office of District Attorney of the United&#13;
&#13;
States for this District - by an arrangement with the [present?]&#13;
incumbent, who is dangerously sick. The emoluments will&#13;
help me a little.&#13;
The autographs which [?] mentions are in my&#13;
collection - now at Richmond - I am quite sure he sent&#13;
them to me, in exchange - but I will write to him.&#13;
I am exceedingly glad that your finances are&#13;
so good - Do not think of me - I have only been anxious to&#13;
gain enough to send you or Jose some thing - which I hope to&#13;
do next winter.&#13;
So the Spaniards &amp; the [Russians?] have gone - The&#13;
Judge is delighted - and how is the household of the Mar[?]&#13;
House flourishing? I shall write to Mrs. Howell soon&#13;
about her land matters -&#13;
You may expect Charley in about a fortnight&#13;
after this letter reaches you - He will not, I think, be&#13;
long in Phila - but long enough to tell you every-thing&#13;
you want to know.&#13;
I am boarding at Mrs. Cooke's. It is a very&#13;
pleasant place - and she a pleasant woman. The [cautions?]&#13;
about her which Josepha was pleased to give - were rather&#13;
[?] - and based upon stories, which very naturally [?]&#13;
but which, I think, leave nothing which ought to affect her&#13;
character - She has been unfortunate only - perhaps imprudent&#13;
but from goodness of heart and some little [desire?] of [admiration?]&#13;
- nothing else - &#13;
Love &amp; remembrance to everyone - I have&#13;
written to Fanny. [?] yours&#13;
William G. Hale.&#13;

                  <text>Sarah Josepha Buell Hale (1788-1879) was a major literary figure of the 19th century. Born in New Hampshire, she was educated at home and by her mother and brother, Horatio. She married a young lawyer, David Hale, who died in 1822. As a result she had to find a way to support herself and her five children. She utilized her literary skills and published a collection of poems with mild success followed by her first novel entitled &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; in 1827. &lt;em&gt;Northwood&lt;/em&gt; advocated the repatriation of slaves to Africa by means of Liberia and called for New England style morality throughout the nation. In 1828 she began editing &lt;em&gt;The Ladies’ Magazine of Boston&lt;/em&gt;, the first magazine for women to be edited by a woman. It had its financial difficulties and was united with &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt; (the majorly influential women’s magazine of the 19th century) in 1837. Godey’s was based in Philadelphia and she eventually she moved to Philadelphia from Boston to become more involved in her editorship of the magazine. These magazines acted as her platform to promote her moral agendas. She was a major proponent of equal education for women; however she was not a suffragist. She pushed for men and women to remain within their god-given spheres and believed women needed education to be better moral upholders of the home. Aside from being the editor of &lt;em&gt;Godey’s Lady’s Book&lt;/em&gt;, she wrote many books and poems while lobbying for educational and social reform. Hale is also the author of &lt;em&gt;Mary had a Little Lamb&lt;/em&gt; and the main person responsible for making Thanksgiving a national holiday (it was previously only celebrated in her native New England). Hale died in 1879 and was survived by four children (her oldest son died in 1839).</text>

              <text>Albany Sep 16. 1850&#13;
&#13;
My dear Madam&#13;
&#13;
I received your letter&#13;
to-day &amp; would be happy to aid you in&#13;
this or any other literary matter, as&#13;
far as I am able. I do not know how&#13;
extended an account you wish of Miss&#13;
Sewell I will [?] give you what&#13;
maybe a sufficient outline for your&#13;
purpose.&#13;
I was well acquainted &#13;
with Miss S. when in England in 1845,&#13;
&amp; have since had the pleasure of a constant&#13;
correspondance [correspondence] with her. Her&#13;
name is Elizabeth M. Sewell ( I do &#13;
not know what the middle letter stands&#13;
for.) Her family is one of great respectability,&#13;
residing at "Sea View Cottage," BonChurch,&#13;
near Ventnor, in the southern part &#13;
&#13;
of the Isle of Wight. Her father has been dead &#13;
some years: her mother died about a year since.&#13;
She has two brothers, one a barrister in London,&#13;
the other, the Rev Wm Sewell AM. Fellow of Exeter&#13;
Coll. &amp; Prof. of Moral Philoy in Univ. of Oxford.&#13;
The first publication about 7 years ago, was&#13;
"Stories on the Lord's Prayer". Wh. came out anonymously.&#13;
Then "Amy Herbert," wh. attracted &#13;
great notice &amp; has been through several editions&#13;
in England &amp; this country. II. "Gertrude".&#13;
III. "Margaret Percival [Perceval]" 2 cols. IV. "Laneton&#13;
Parsonage" 3 vols. V. "The Earl's daughter."&#13;
Besides these she wrote "Walter Lorimer," the&#13;
1st story in "The Sketches" - (the other two stories&#13;
being furnished by Prof. Sewell &amp; Rev. [?] Adams,&#13;
author of "The Shadow of the Cross"). The last&#13;
publication is "Is it a Dream?" - a small&#13;
vol. published anonymously and not reprinted&#13;
in this country.&#13;
The great object of her works is to &#13;
advocate Church principles. Thus, "Amy Herbert"&#13;
us devoted to the subject of baptism &amp; Laneton&#13;
Parsonage to that of Confirmation. Few writers&#13;
&#13;
writers have had so extensive a circulation in this &#13;
country.&#13;
I do not know of any portrait or engraving&#13;
of Miss S. nor did I ever see one in &#13;
England or at their own house.&#13;
I regret that the application was&#13;
not made to me some months ago, when&#13;
I could have procured from England all the&#13;
information you desired. Perhaps however&#13;
this outline will enable you to write as&#13;
extended a notice as you wish. If I can&#13;
be of any further use to you in this matter&#13;
command my services.&#13;
There is one way in wh. sometimes&#13;
I may aid you in your literary labour. I have&#13;
control of the literary department of the &#13;
"Albany State Register" a political paper&#13;
established here last spring by the Hon.&#13;
DD Barnard (now appointed minister to [Rumania?])&#13;
Hon John C, Spenser - Hon JA Collier &amp;&#13;
I took it at that request of these gentlemen&#13;
&#13;
who wished, (a new feature in a political&#13;
paper) to have a distinct literary department.&#13;
As it is the organ of Pres. Fillmore&#13;
in this state, it has a wide circulation&#13;
among the highest class of men &#13;
&amp; a notice of a book may be useful there&#13;
I will send you a couple of Nos. that &#13;
you may see it. I have occasionally&#13;
noticed your periodical when sent me&#13;
by booksellers here.&#13;
Perhaps sometimes I may aid &#13;
you in its notices. If so, let me know&#13;
&amp; it will afford me pleasure to do so.&#13;
Yours respectfuly [respectfully]&#13;
W. Ingraham Kip&#13;
&#13;
Mrs Hale -&#13;
