ness must consist in making everything good, and that Satan himself could have no shield strong enough to resist permanently the divine power of the divine spirit. New vistas were opening everywhere before her. She made acquaintance with Margaret Fuller, who read her poems, and urged her to publish them. Of one of these poems, Miss Fuller writes:-- It is the record of days of genuine inspiration,--of days when the soul lay in the light, when the spiritual harmonies were clearly apprehMiss Fuller writes:-- It is the record of days of genuine inspiration,--of days when the soul lay in the light, when the spiritual harmonies were clearly apprehended and great religious symbols reanimated with their original meaning. Its numbers have the fulness and sweetness of young love, young life. Its gifts were great and demand the service of a long day's work to requite and to interpret them. I can hardly realize that the Julia Ward I have seen has lived this life. It has not yet pervaded her whole being, though I can recall something of it in the steady light of her eye. May she become all attempered and ennobled by this music. I saw in h

ch myself with my hair mittens. . .. Beside this feast of hospitality, there was the theatre, with Macready and Helen Faucit in the Lady of Lyons, and the opera, with Grisi and Mario, Alboni and Persiani. Julia, who had been forbidden the theatre since her seventh year, enjoyed to the full both music and drama, but the crowning ecstasy of all she found in the ballet, of which Fanny Elssler and Cerito were the stars. The former was beginning to wane; the dancing which to Emerson and Margaret Fuller seemed poetry and religion had lost, perhaps, something of its magic; the latter was still in her early bloom and grace. Years later, our mother suggested to Theodore Parker that the best stage dancing gives the classic, in a fluent form, with the illumination of life and personality. She recalled nothing sensual or even sensuous in the dances she saw that season, only the very ectasy and embodiment of grace. (But the Doctor thought Cerito ought to be sent to the House of Correcti

e as Orlando in As you like it ; his beautiful reading of the part contrasting oddly with his middle-aged, longbearded personality. Our mother's rendering of Maria in Twelfth night was something to remember.] June 17. Up at five and to get a boat. Maud and the Lieutenant [Zalinski] rowed me to Fort Independence and back, a most refreshing excursion. Dear Dr. Hedge came out to make a morning visit. I kept him as long as I could. We talked of Bartol, Rubinstein, Father Taylor, and Margaret Fuller, whom he knew when she was fourteen years old. He urged me to labor for dress reform, which he considered much needed. Had preached two sermons on the subject which his dressy parishioners resented, telling him that their husbands approved of their fine clothes. I begged him to unearth these sermons and give them to us at the club. We spoke of marriage, and I unfolded rapidly my military and moral theory of human relations. Thought of a text for a sermon on this subject: Arise, tak

ad dipped up the water from the ocean of sunrise. Mr. Cushing sent this. E. E. H. also spoke about five hymns which should be written corresponding to the five great hymns of the Catholic mass. He asked me to write one of these and I promised to try. April 16. Splint off to-day. Waited for Dr. Beach, so could not go to church. Had an interesting talk with the Doctor on the Immortality of the Soul, in which he is a believer. April 27. Made to-day a good start in writing about Margaret Fuller. This night at 8.50 P. M. died Ralph Waldo Emerson, i.e., all of him that could die. I think of him as a father gone — father of so much beauty, of so much modern thought. May 7. To church, going out for the first time without a crutch, using only my cane. J. F. C.'s sermon was about Emerson, and was very interesting and delicately appreciative. I think that he exaggerated Emerson's solid and practical effect in the promotion of modern liberalism. The change was in the air and

with many gentle ghosts of past companionship, and with a task at which I work steadily every day. This is a life of Margaret Fuller, rewritten mostly from the memoirs already published, but also recast in my own thought. The publisher is in a hurrs work that he sometimes cuts up amazing. Said work is pretty well out of hand at this moment, the last chapters of Margaret Fuller being ready for the press.... I have so much felt the shocking uncharity of things in the way of diaries and lettersut the Carlyles? And is it strictly charitable? I dunno; I'm getting very old to know anything.... The Life of Margaret Fuller (in Roberts Brothers' series of Famous Women ) was a small book, yet it stood for much careful work, and was so recok a singular form, e.g., a letter from a gentleman styling himself Prof. Nat. & Geol., who desires two copies of the Margaret Fuller, and asks her to accept for them a choice selection of Lithological, Cabinet of Geological Mineral specimens, repres

ging solemn thoughts of the uncertainty of life, and sorrow for such misuse of its great gifts and opportunities as I am well conscious of. This has been a good year to me. It carried me to the Pacific slope, and showed me indeed a land of promise. It gave me an unexpected joy in the harmonious feelings toward me and the members of A. A.W. at the Detroit Congress. It has, alas! taken from me my dear pastor, most precious to me for help and instruction, and other dear and valued friends, notably Sarah Shaw Russell, Mrs. George Russell, widow of the Doctor's friend and college chum. Abby W. May and Carrie Tappan. Caroline Tappan was Caroline Sturgis, daughter of Captain William Sturgis, and sister of Ellen (Sturgis) Hooper,--member of the inmost Transcendentalist circle, and friend of Emerson, Ellery Channing, and Margaret Fuller. I desire to set my house in order, and be ready for my departure; thankful to live, or willing to cease from my mortal life when God so wills. . .

clouded, I went to my window. As I looked out, the gray clouds parted, giving me a moment's sight of a star high up in the heavens. This little glimpse gave me hope for the day and great comfort. It was like an answering glance to my many troubled questions.... We have stood for that which was known to be right in theory, and for that which has proved to be right in practice. (From my suffrage address at State House in 1894). In December, 1895, appeared her first volume since Margaret Fuller, a collection of essays, published under the title of the opening one, Is Polite Society Polite? In the preface she says:-- I remember, that quite late in the fifties, I mentioned to Theodore Parker the desire which I began to feel to give living expression to my thoughts, and to lend to my written words the interpretation of my voice. Parker, who had taken a friendly interest in the publication of my first volumes, Passion Flowers and Words for the hour, gave his approval also

m [forty-four lines] without the slightest inclination to cough. This really was the granting of my prayer, and my first thought about it was, What shall I render to the Lord for all His goodness to me? I thought, I will interest myself more efficiently in the great questions which concern Life and Society at large. If I have the word for the moment, as some think, I will take more pains to speak it. A little later came a centenary which — alas!--she did not enjoy. It was that of Margaret Fuller, and was held in Cambridge. She was asked to attend it, and was assured that she would not be expected to speak. This kindly wish to spare fatigue to a woman of ninety-one was the last thing she desired. She could hardly believe that she would be left out — she, who had known Margaret, had talked and corresponded with her. They have not asked me to speakI she said more than once as the time drew near. She was reassured; of course they would ask her when they saw her! I have
