Agassiz had the cooperation not only of his brother-in-law, Professor Felton, but of others among his colleagues, who took classes in special departments, or gave lectures in history or literature. Among these additional instructors was Luigi Monti, the Young Sicilian of Longfellow's Wayside Inn, In sight of Etna born and bred, who was at the time teaching in Harvard College. Mr. Kendall's School. Mr. Joshua Kendall's Day and Family School to fit young men for Harvard College was begun in the fall of 1865, its nucleus being some pupils whom Mr. Kendall had taught at his own home, and some others whom he had had with Professor William P.

f miles Standish, he selected his themes from our own history. The building of the ship, written with full faith in the troubled year of 1849, is a national anthem. It is a wonderful gift, said Lincoln, as he listened to it, his eyes filled with tears, to be able to stir men like that. The Skeleton in Armor, a ballad of the French Fleet, Paul Revere's Ride, the Wreck of the Hesperus, are ballads that stir men still. For all of his skill in story-telling in verse-witness the Tales of a Wayside Inn-Longfellow was not by nature a dramatist, and his trilogy now published under the title of Christus, made up of The divine tragedy, the golden legend, and New England tragedies, added little to a reputation won in other fields. His sonnets, particularly those upon Chaucer, Milton, the Divina Commedia, a Nameless grave, Felton, Sumner, nature, My books, are among the imperishable treasures of the English language. In descriptive pieces like Keramos and The Hanging of the Crane, in such

then generally called Quaboag: Capt. Sewal and Major Townsend, being commissioned to treat with the Mockways, set out from Boston about half an hour past twelve, Monday, August 6, 1694. Several gentlemen did accompany them to Watertown, and then returned. At Watertown we met with Lieutenant Hammond and thirty troopers, who were appointed for a guard to Springfield. We came to our first stage at Malberough, about half an hour past eight in the evening. We lodged at Abraham How's, The Wayside inn, celebrated by Longfellow. and thence set forward the next morning about half an hour past seven of the clock. There was nothing remarkable this day, but only Mr. Dwite, of Hatford, did accidentally fall into our company, and after the same manner, scil. accidentally, he and his horse both together fell into a brook; but both rose again without damage. This day we dined in the woods. Pleasant descants were made upon the dining room: it was said that it was large, high, curiously hung

Voyage of the Jettie. The picturesquely situated Wayside Inn at West Ossipee, N. H., is now in ashes; and to its former guests these somewhat careless rhymes may be a not unwelcome reminder of pleasant summers and autumns on the banks of the Bearcamp and Chocorua. To the author himself they have a special interest from the fact that they were written, or improvised, under the eye and for the amusement of a beloved invalid friend whose last earthly sunsets faded from the mountain ranges of Ossipee and Sandwich.

ccessive flights were combined with longer works. The first was contained in the volume called The Courtship of Miles Standish (1858); the second in Tales of a Wayside Inn (1863); flight the third appeared in connection with Aftermath (1873); flight the fourth in Masque of Pandora and Other Poems (1875), and flight the fifth in Kee earlier; and while the maturer works have not, as a whole, the fervor and freshness of the first, they have more average skill of execution. The Tales of a Wayside Inn was the final grouping of several stories which had accumulated upon him, large and small, and finally demanded a title-page in common. Some of them had been book was originally to have been called The Sudbury Tales, and was sent to the printer in April, 1863, under that title, which was however changed to Tales of a Wayside Inn, through the urgency of Charles Sumner.
