                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work.

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>This digital collection features manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, documents, and clippings related to the British poet and author Charlotte Mary Mew (1869-1928), a transitional figure between the periods of Victorian and Modernist poetry. &#13;
 &#13;
Charlotte Mew was born in London, England, the daughter of an architect. Her life was plagued by the deaths of family members and a family history of mental illness, to which she ultimately succumbed. Mew was especially close to her sister Anne, who became Mew’s last surviving close relative; the two agreed never to marry to avoid passing on genetic predispositions to mental illness. Unable to live openly as a lesbian, Mew’s self-effacing manner and rejection of traditional feminine gender expression further alienated her from polite society, even as she was accepted by some literary circles. She was known to wear short hair, masculine attire, and carry a black umbrella. Unusually for a woman in Victorian England, Mew smoked profusely and rolled her own cigarettes.  &#13;
 &#13;
Despite winning the admiration of major literary figures—including Thomas Hardy, H.D., Ezra Pound, Siegfried Sassoon, and Virginia Woolf—during her lifetime, Mew's work remained relatively obscure in the years following her death. It wasn’t until 1981 that Mew’s complete works were published in the Collected Poems and Prose edited by Val Warner. The first full biography of Mew, by Penelope Fitzgerald, followed in 1984. &#13;
 &#13;
The Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection mostly originates from Alida Klementaski Monro. Monro was a friend of Mew’s and an employee and later proprietor of the Poetry Bookshop in London, which published Mew’s work. Additional materials come from the collection of Sydney Cockerell. Cockerell was an associate of Mew’s, director of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, and literary executor for Thomas Hardy, himself a champion of Mew’s work. More information about the Poetry Collection’s Charlotte Mew collection can be found in the collection’s finding aid.</text>

                  <text>Bethune: every woman her own architect Louise Blanchard Bethune (1856–1913) is widely considered to be the first woman to practice as a professional architect in the United States. This digital collection explores Louise Bethune’s life and work through photographs and architectural drawings selected from the Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune, circa 1860-196 2. Louise Bethune played a key role in the architectural firm that she founded, going well beyond simply designing buildings to supervising budgets and onsite work—a highly unusual role for women of the day. Louise let her work and deeds speak for her support of women’s right to work outside the home and to be equitably recompensed for their efforts. In her architecture, family life, and public and private behavior she spoke to a new generation of professional women. The Hotel Lafayette is by far the most significant Bethune structure. The building was initially conceived in 1899 to meet the anticipated demand from the 1901 Pan American Exposition. Its restoration in 2012 was enormously important for Buffalo. The first building in New York State to be saved through state and federal historic tax credits, its restoration coincided with the most substantial economic expansion the Queen City of the Lakes had witnessed in decades. Bethune’s restored opus has come to embody the Lady Architect’s finest work during the Queen City’s finest years and symbolizes what is to come. The bulk of The Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune collection was gifted to the University Archives by Sean Feeley (husband of Zina Bethune) in 2017, as facilitated by Kelly Hayes McAlonie. Additional materials were gifted to the University Archives by Kelly Hayes McAlonie and Jon Morris. The foundation of this collection rests with materials pertaining to Louise Bethune and her work as an architect. These include several portraits of Bethune, from approximately age 3 to 55; a typewritten biographical manuscript by Bethune written near the end of her life; her genealogy research of the Blanchard and Bethune families; and architectural plans for three of Bethune’s works in Buffalo, New York. The collection also documents Louise and Robert Bethune’s son, Dr. Charles William Bethune.

                  <text>Bethune: every woman her own architect Louise Blanchard Bethune (1856–1913) is widely considered to be the first woman to practice as a professional architect in the United States. This digital collection explores Louise Bethune’s life and work through photographs and architectural drawings selected from the Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune, circa 1860-196 2. Louise Bethune played a key role in the architectural firm that she founded, going well beyond simply designing buildings to supervising budgets and onsite work—a highly unusual role for women of the day. Louise let her work and deeds speak for her support of women’s right to work outside the home and to be equitably recompensed for their efforts. In her architecture, family life, and public and private behavior she spoke to a new generation of professional women. The Hotel Lafayette is by far the most significant Bethune structure. The building was initially conceived in 1899 to meet the anticipated demand from the 1901 Pan American Exposition. Its restoration in 2012 was enormously important for Buffalo. The first building in New York State to be saved through state and federal historic tax credits, its restoration coincided with the most substantial economic expansion the Queen City of the Lakes had witnessed in decades. Bethune’s restored opus has come to embody the Lady Architect’s finest work during the Queen City’s finest years and symbolizes what is to come. The bulk of The Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune collection was gifted to the University Archives by Sean Feeley (husband of Zina Bethune) in 2017, as facilitated by Kelly Hayes McAlonie. Additional materials were gifted to the University Archives by Kelly Hayes McAlonie and Jon Morris. The foundation of this collection rests with materials pertaining to Louise Bethune and her work as an architect. These include several portraits of Bethune, from approximately age 3 to 55; a typewritten biographical manuscript by Bethune written near the end of her life; her genealogy research of the Blanchard and Bethune families; and architectural plans for three of Bethune’s works in Buffalo, New York. The collection also documents Louise and Robert Bethune’s son, Dr. Charles William Bethune.

                  <text>Bethune: every woman her own architect Louise Blanchard Bethune (1856–1913) is widely considered to be the first woman to practice as a professional architect in the United States. This digital collection explores Louise Bethune’s life and work through photographs and architectural drawings selected from the Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune, circa 1860-196 2. Louise Bethune played a key role in the architectural firm that she founded, going well beyond simply designing buildings to supervising budgets and onsite work—a highly unusual role for women of the day. Louise let her work and deeds speak for her support of women’s right to work outside the home and to be equitably recompensed for their efforts. In her architecture, family life, and public and private behavior she spoke to a new generation of professional women. The Hotel Lafayette is by far the most significant Bethune structure. The building was initially conceived in 1899 to meet the anticipated demand from the 1901 Pan American Exposition. Its restoration in 2012 was enormously important for Buffalo. The first building in New York State to be saved through state and federal historic tax credits, its restoration coincided with the most substantial economic expansion the Queen City of the Lakes had witnessed in decades. Bethune’s restored opus has come to embody the Lady Architect’s finest work during the Queen City’s finest years and symbolizes what is to come. The bulk of The Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune collection was gifted to the University Archives by Sean Feeley (husband of Zina Bethune) in 2017, as facilitated by Kelly Hayes McAlonie. Additional materials were gifted to the University Archives by Kelly Hayes McAlonie and Jon Morris. The foundation of this collection rests with materials pertaining to Louise Bethune and her work as an architect. These include several portraits of Bethune, from approximately age 3 to 55; a typewritten biographical manuscript by Bethune written near the end of her life; her genealogy research of the Blanchard and Bethune families; and architectural plans for three of Bethune’s works in Buffalo, New York. The collection also documents Louise and Robert Bethune’s son, Dr. Charles William Bethune.

                  <text>Bethune: every woman her own architect Louise Blanchard Bethune (1856–1913) is widely considered to be the first woman to practice as a professional architect in the United States. This digital collection explores Louise Bethune’s life and work through photographs and architectural drawings selected from the Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune, circa 1860-196 2. Louise Bethune played a key role in the architectural firm that she founded, going well beyond simply designing buildings to supervising budgets and onsite work—a highly unusual role for women of the day. Louise let her work and deeds speak for her support of women’s right to work outside the home and to be equitably recompensed for their efforts. In her architecture, family life, and public and private behavior she spoke to a new generation of professional women. The Hotel Lafayette is by far the most significant Bethune structure. The building was initially conceived in 1899 to meet the anticipated demand from the 1901 Pan American Exposition. Its restoration in 2012 was enormously important for Buffalo. The first building in New York State to be saved through state and federal historic tax credits, its restoration coincided with the most substantial economic expansion the Queen City of the Lakes had witnessed in decades. Bethune’s restored opus has come to embody the Lady Architect’s finest work during the Queen City’s finest years and symbolizes what is to come. The bulk of The Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune collection was gifted to the University Archives by Sean Feeley (husband of Zina Bethune) in 2017, as facilitated by Kelly Hayes McAlonie. Additional materials were gifted to the University Archives by Kelly Hayes McAlonie and Jon Morris. The foundation of this collection rests with materials pertaining to Louise Bethune and her work as an architect. These include several portraits of Bethune, from approximately age 3 to 55; a typewritten biographical manuscript by Bethune written near the end of her life; her genealogy research of the Blanchard and Bethune families; and architectural plans for three of Bethune’s works in Buffalo, New York. The collection also documents Louise and Robert Bethune’s son, Dr. Charles William Bethune.

                <text>The image portrays a woman, presumably a University of Buffalo student or supporter, dressed in late-19th- or early-20th-century attire and  standing next to a bicycle. The woman holds a flag marked “UB” in one hand and wears a hat with decorative feathers. The bicycle has thin tires and a chain guard, and the woman is positioned in front of a plain studio backdrop.  Although not a portrait of the architect per se, Louise Blanchard Bethune reportedly purchased the first woman's bicycle to go on sale in Buffalo and was an active member of the Women's Wheel and Athletic Club.

                  <text>Bethune: every woman her own architect Louise Blanchard Bethune (1856–1913) is widely considered to be the first woman to practice as a professional architect in the United States. This digital collection explores Louise Bethune’s life and work through photographs and architectural drawings selected from the Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune, circa 1860-196 2. Louise Bethune played a key role in the architectural firm that she founded, going well beyond simply designing buildings to supervising budgets and onsite work—a highly unusual role for women of the day. Louise let her work and deeds speak for her support of women’s right to work outside the home and to be equitably recompensed for their efforts. In her architecture, family life, and public and private behavior she spoke to a new generation of professional women. The Hotel Lafayette is by far the most significant Bethune structure. The building was initially conceived in 1899 to meet the anticipated demand from the 1901 Pan American Exposition. Its restoration in 2012 was enormously important for Buffalo. The first building in New York State to be saved through state and federal historic tax credits, its restoration coincided with the most substantial economic expansion the Queen City of the Lakes had witnessed in decades. Bethune’s restored opus has come to embody the Lady Architect’s finest work during the Queen City’s finest years and symbolizes what is to come. The bulk of The Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune collection was gifted to the University Archives by Sean Feeley (husband of Zina Bethune) in 2017, as facilitated by Kelly Hayes McAlonie. Additional materials were gifted to the University Archives by Kelly Hayes McAlonie and Jon Morris. The foundation of this collection rests with materials pertaining to Louise Bethune and her work as an architect. These include several portraits of Bethune, from approximately age 3 to 55; a typewritten biographical manuscript by Bethune written near the end of her life; her genealogy research of the Blanchard and Bethune families; and architectural plans for three of Bethune’s works in Buffalo, New York. The collection also documents Louise and Robert Bethune’s son, Dr. Charles William Bethune.

                <text>Sepia-toned formal studio group portrait photograph shows the members of the architectural firm of Bethune, Bethune &amp; Fuchs, Architects plus an employee/assistant posed in two rows against a plain backdrop in the late 1880s. Louise Bethune stands in front on the left, close to her husband Canadian architect Robert A. Bethune (to her left). Two additional younger men are standing on either side of the couple, slightly behind them.  The young man to the right is their partner (as of 1891) and former protege and employee  William L. Fuchs. The name of the young man at the far left is unknown.  Each individual wears late nineteenth century style clothing, including high-collared garments and jackets.  A printed studio mark and the location “BUFFALO N.Y.” appear along the right edge of the card mount which identifies the photographer as B.F. Powelson of Buffalo, New York. The sepia tones in the lower portion of the photograph gradually fade, typical of aged cabinet card photographs.</text>

                  <text>Bethune: every woman her own architect Louise Blanchard Bethune (1856–1913) is widely considered to be the first woman to practice as a professional architect in the United States. This digital collection explores Louise Bethune’s life and work through photographs and architectural drawings selected from the Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune, circa 1860-196 2. Louise Bethune played a key role in the architectural firm that she founded, going well beyond simply designing buildings to supervising budgets and onsite work—a highly unusual role for women of the day. Louise let her work and deeds speak for her support of women’s right to work outside the home and to be equitably recompensed for their efforts. In her architecture, family life, and public and private behavior she spoke to a new generation of professional women. The Hotel Lafayette is by far the most significant Bethune structure. The building was initially conceived in 1899 to meet the anticipated demand from the 1901 Pan American Exposition. Its restoration in 2012 was enormously important for Buffalo. The first building in New York State to be saved through state and federal historic tax credits, its restoration coincided with the most substantial economic expansion the Queen City of the Lakes had witnessed in decades. Bethune’s restored opus has come to embody the Lady Architect’s finest work during the Queen City’s finest years and symbolizes what is to come. The bulk of The Zina Bethune collection on Louise Bethune collection was gifted to the University Archives by Sean Feeley (husband of Zina Bethune) in 2017, as facilitated by Kelly Hayes McAlonie. Additional materials were gifted to the University Archives by Kelly Hayes McAlonie and Jon Morris. The foundation of this collection rests with materials pertaining to Louise Bethune and her work as an architect. These include several portraits of Bethune, from approximately age 3 to 55; a typewritten biographical manuscript by Bethune written near the end of her life; her genealogy research of the Blanchard and Bethune families; and architectural plans for three of Bethune’s works in Buffalo, New York. The collection also documents Louise and Robert Bethune’s son, Dr. Charles William Bethune.

It was a multi-story brick building constructed in a historic architectural style, featuring tall rectangular windows and stone detailing along the lower portion.  A central tower with a pointed spire rises above the structure, and multiple arched doorways are visible along the façade. The building sits on open ground with no vegetation immediately surrounding it, and smaller structures can be seen faintly in the background.  It was designed by the Buffalo, New York architectural firm of Bethune, Bethune &amp; Fuchs, Architects in 1891.</text>

                <text>This record of confirmations lists a congregants full name, sex, date and place of birth, date and place of baptism, and date and place of confirmation. This record also lists who the confirmation was presented by and the bishop confirming. Despite having a wide range of dates, there are many missing years especially in the 2000s. The majority of the ledger spans the rectorship of Reverend Kenneth Stewart Curry. The record also includes an incomplete index of names indicating which page to locate a confirmation. </text>

Dear Rectors and Wardens:
I write you concerning the pledge to the Diocese for 1974 from your
congregation.
Each year you solicit the members of your congregation asking for a pledge
of financial support. You attempt to inform your people of the needs of the
church, urge them to be generous and inspiring them to be faithful stewards of
the gifts God has given them. It can be very frustrating when people fail to
recognize those needs and shirk t heir responsibility as members of the Church.
The Diocese has a similar relationship to its parishes. The Diocese urges
its parishes to be faithful stewards of the gifts they receive from their
parishioners and to remember others outside the parish boundaries. It can be
very frustrating when parishes fail to recognize Diocesan needs and shirk their
responsibilities as members of the Diocese. The same must be kept in mind when
the Diocese considers its pledge to the National Church. I am suggesting that
the Vestry, when making a parish pledge to the Diocese, tell itself the same
sort of thing it has been telling its own parishioners. Likewise, the Diocese
must "practice what it preaches" when it signs a pledge to the National Church.
At our last Convention, our Diocesan Treasurer commented that the Diocese of
Western New York was in better financial condition than it had ever been in his
own personal experience. The Diocese is financially solvent, not because we have
ample funding, but because we have trimmed expenses in order .to live within our
income. We have not been able to pay our "fair share" to the National Church.
New work, involving added expenditures have been delayed. Being solvent is no
great virtue if such solvency results in stagnation.
At the same Convention, the Diocese voted to increase the minimum clergy
salaries and to become more of a "servant Church", striving to meet the unmet
needs in our communities. Translated into practice, this means increased
expenditures for both the parish and the Diocese. It also means that the
individual parishioners are supporting, through t heir pledge to the Diocese,
many worthwhile programs.
From 1968 to 1972, pledges to the Diocese decreased each year from a high
of $335,000. to a low in 1972 of $277,000. - a decrease over a five year period
of some $57,000. - duri ng an inflationary spiral! Last year (1973) we reversed
that trend with an increase in pledges amounting to $4,500. It would be tragic
if we were to fall back now. With thi s in mind, I am asking each parish to
pledge a t l e
as a
much
s as
t they pledged in 1973 with the earnest hope that they

will be able to continue this new trend by increasing their pledge for 1974.
I am confident that you will take all of this and more into consideration
when you decide upon your pledge to the Diocese for next year. The enclosed
pledge form (sent only to the clergy) should be returned to the Diocesan office
no later than January 3, 1974. We must have them by this date in order to
formulate the 1974 budget.

I am deeply grateful for your support during the last three years as your
Diocesan. I continue to be encouraged by signs of renewal and vitality and
invite you to share my enthusiasm.
Faithfully yours,

HBR/w
Enc.

                <text>Diocese of Western New York&lt;br /&gt;1114 Delaware Avenue&lt;br /&gt;Buffalo, New York 14209&lt;br /&gt;716-881-0660&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Rectors and Wardens:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I write you concerning the pledge to the Diocese for 1974 from your&lt;br /&gt;congregation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each year you solicit the members of your congregation asking for a pledge&lt;br /&gt;of financial support. You attempt to inform your people of the needs of the&lt;br /&gt;church, urge them to be generous and inspiring them to be faithful stewards of&lt;br /&gt;the gifts God has given them. It can be very frustrating when people fail to&lt;br /&gt;recognize those needs and shirk their responsibility as members of the Church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Diocese has a similar relationship to its parishes. The Diocese urges&lt;br /&gt;its parishes to be faithful stewards of the gifts they receive from their&lt;br /&gt;parishioners and to remember others outside the parish boundaries. It can be&lt;br /&gt;very frustrating when parishes fail to recognize Diocesan needs and shirk their&lt;br /&gt;responsibilities as members of the Diocese. The same must be kept in mind when&lt;br /&gt;the Diocese considers its pledge to the National Church. I am suggesting that&lt;br /&gt;the Vestry, when making a parish pledge to the Diocese, tell itself the same&lt;br /&gt;sort of thing it has been telling its own parishioners. Likewise, the Diocese&lt;br /&gt;must "practice what it preaches" when it signs a pledge to the National Church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At our last Convention, our Diocesan Treasurer commented that the Diocese of&lt;br /&gt;Western New York was in better financial condition than it had ever been in his&lt;br /&gt;own personal experience. The Diocese is financially solvent, not because we have&lt;br /&gt;ample funding, but because we have trimmed expenses in order .to live within our&lt;br /&gt;income. We have not been able to pay our "fair share" to the National Church.&lt;br /&gt;New work, involving added expenditures have been delayed. Being solvent is no&lt;br /&gt;great virtue if such solvency results in stagnation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the same Convention, the Diocese voted to increase the minimum clergy&lt;br /&gt;salaries and to become more of a "servant Church", striving to meet the unmet&lt;br /&gt;needs in our communities. Translated into practice, this means increased&lt;br /&gt;expenditures for both the parish and the Diocese. It also means that the&lt;br /&gt;individual parishioners are supporting, through t heir pledge to the Diocese,&lt;br /&gt;many worthwhile programs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From 1968 to 1972, pledges to the Diocese decreased each year from a high&lt;br /&gt;of $335,000. to a low in 1972 of $277,000. - a decrease over a five year period&lt;br /&gt;of some $57,000. - during an inflationary spiral! Last year (1973) we reversed&lt;br /&gt;that trend with an increase in pledges amounting to $4,500. It would be tragic&lt;br /&gt;if we were to fall back now. With this in mind, I am asking each parish to&lt;br /&gt;pledge at leas amucsh ats they pledged in 1973 with the earnest hope that they&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.2&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;will be able to continue this new trend by increasing their pledge for 1974.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am confident that you will take all of this and more into consideration&lt;br /&gt;when you decide upon your pledge to the Diocese for next year. The enclosed&lt;br /&gt;pledge form (sent only to the clergy) should be returned to the Diocesan office&lt;br /&gt;no later than January 3, 1974. We must have them by this date in order to&lt;br /&gt;formulate the 1974 budget.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am deeply grateful for your support during the last three years as your&lt;br /&gt;Diocesan. I continue to be encouraged by signs of renewal and vitality and&lt;br /&gt;invite you to share my enthusiasm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Faithfully yours,&lt;br /&gt;Harold Barrett Robinson&lt;br /&gt;Bishop of Western New York&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HBR/w&lt;br /&gt;Enc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;November 13, 1973</text>

Mr. James P. Parks, Warden

St. Philip' s Episcopal Church
166 Goodell Street
Buffalo, New York 14203
Dear Mr. Parks:
This response to your repeated interest in our property at 222
Northland is late, and I know that it is not in keeping with your desires.

Our Board of Directors has formally adopted a motion to retain
this property, withour change in the present use and agreements.
While we certainly are aware of your need, and know that the
possibilities of your interest in it's use would be very much in keeping
with our own philosophies, we feel that in continuing the present situation
we are, in fact, providing a Ministry to people. This "Ministry" serves
people through the Skills Assesment Center as well as utilization of the
Church proper in Worship Services.
We pray that God bless your efforts and that His will be done in
providing a direction for your congregation.

Sincerely,

William A. Goldbach
President

DIRECTOR:

THE

REV, JOHN E. CHRIST, JR.

YOUR KINDESS IN HAVING THIS READ
WILL BE DEEPLY APPRECIATED

"Naked and you clothed me:
• • . me ..... "
ye visited

I was sick and

"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of
these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."
( Matthew 25:

36 and 40)

Reverend Clergy and Members of the Vestry1
No so many years ago, it was quite common to find family units
containing grandparents who were living out their lives in the "old
homestead" which was being managed by their children.
Today, family units are more mobile; occupational changes more
frequent. And when the grandparents retire, many find themselves living
alone in the "old homestead." This home soon becomes unmanageable for
them, and they - too, need a lot of care and medical attention. Where
do they go?
Thus, today, the growth of Nursing Homes has become a salvation
f or these lonely people.
In December 1970, a new and vital ministry came into effect
within our Diocese. Father Clarke, Chaplain to Roswell Park Memorial
Institute and the Buffalo General Hospital, was asked by our Bishop
to act as Co-Ordinator for the Nursing Home Ministry of our Dioceseo
Since then thirty-five active Lay Readers' have faithfully taken Services
on Sundays in most of our major Nursing Homes. Servic es have even been
held all during the summer months.
In three years not one single Lay
Reader has missed taking his turn with a Service. Ser.vices are held
twelve months each year. There is now a Priest assigned to each and
every Nursing Home to care for the patient's Sacramental life as well.
This ministry has proven itself to be very effective in helping
to bring the Church to these Christian people, now retired and no longer
active within society. However, this Ministry does not receive any
dependable or consistant financial support. For the past three years;
it has financially functioned through the blessing of gifts. Although
gratefully received, these modest oblations are not adequate.
From time to time needs are made known to us. EG. The elderly and
infirm require large print when it comes to the reading of the New Testament or copies of the devotional booklet "Forward Day by Day." Then too,
we like to distribute small bedside favors at Christmas time and Easter.
Our Lay Readers' also require help financially to purchase sermon material,
devotional booklets etc.
( THE BISHOP'S EXECUTIVE COUNCIL HAS APPROVED THIS LETTER)

Last year we realized the need for a "Prayer
Book Service" in large bold print. This was going to prove a costly
venture. The total amount required was one thousand, four hundred and
seventeen dollars and eighty cents. We stepped forward in faith believing
the Holy Spirit would help us in time. There were many many hours spent
planning and preparing for the production of this book. A total
of fourteen meetings were held and on an average of four hours per meeting at
the Diocesan House. Finally we placed our order for the number ··of books
we required for diocesan use. They arrived and so did the bill ! However,
in one
day we raised almost the entire amount - save two hundred dollars.
The book was paid for by the Lay Readers' involved in the Nursing Home
Ministry themselves. It was a worthy project but now we need your help
as members of the Vestry.
On Saturday evening, February 2nd., 1974 - we
plan to sponsor a Dinner and Dance open to the entire Diocesan Family and
their friends. It will be held at the "Pellamwood House" 3300 Transit Road., at Clinton, West Seneca, N.Y. All proceeds from this project will be given
to the Nursing Home Ministry within our own Diocese in order to better
support the elderly and infirm.
We are asking each Parish to act as a "Patron."
Will you please help us? We have at the present no funds of our own.
We shall gladly print your Parish's name on the Dinner Menu if you will
respond by acting as a Patron.
We invite all members of each Vestry and their
spouses; also their friends. As a Committee, may we suggest respectfully
that you treat your Clergyman and his wife to this event? It would be
so nice to see and have with us the Clergy of our Diocese. We do sincerely
thank you for your kindness in reading this long but important letter.
Please send your check to the address listed below in the lower left hand
corner. Thank you once again. We remain.
Very sincerely yours,
THE DINNER-DANCE COMMITTEE

                <text>YOUR KINDESS IN HAVING THIS READ WILL BE DEEPLY APPRECIATED&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Naked and you clothed me: I was sick and&lt;br /&gt;ye visited me....."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of&lt;br /&gt;these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Matthew 25: 36 and 40)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reverend Clergy and Members of the Vestry:&lt;br /&gt;No so many years ago, it was quite common to find family units&lt;br /&gt;containing grandparents who were living out their lives in the "old&lt;br /&gt;homestead" which was being managed by their children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, family units are more mobile; occupational changes more&lt;br /&gt;frequent. And when the grandparents retire, many find themselves living&lt;br /&gt;alone in the "old homestead." This home soon becomes unmanageable for&lt;br /&gt;them, and they - too, need a lot of care and medical attention. Where&lt;br /&gt;do they go?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus, today, the growth of Nursing Homes has become a salvation&lt;br /&gt;for these lonely people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In December 1970, a new and vital ministry came into effect&lt;br /&gt;within our Diocese. Father Clarke, Chaplain to Roswell Park Memorial&lt;br /&gt;Institute and the Buffalo General Hospital, was asked by our Bishop&lt;br /&gt;to act as Co-ordinator for the Nursing Home Ministry of our Diocese.&lt;br /&gt;Since then thirty-five active Lay Readers' have faithfully taken Services&lt;br /&gt;on Sundays in most of our major Nursing Homes. Services have even been&lt;br /&gt;held all during the summer months. In three years not one single Lay&lt;br /&gt;Reader has missed taking his turn with a Service. Services are held&lt;br /&gt;twelve months each year. There is now a Priest assigned to each and&lt;br /&gt;every Nursing Home to care for the patient's Sacramental life as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This ministry has proven itself to be very effective in helping&lt;br /&gt;to bring the Church to these Christian people, now retired and no longer&lt;br /&gt;active within society. However, this Ministry does not receive any&lt;br /&gt;dependable or consistent financial support. For the past three years;&lt;br /&gt;it has financially functioned through the blessing of gifts. Although&lt;br /&gt;gratefully received, these modest oblations are not adequate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From time to time needs are made known to us. EG. The elderly and&lt;br /&gt;infirm require large print when it comes to the reading of the New Testament&lt;br /&gt;or copies of the devotional booklet "Forward Day by Day." Then too,&lt;br /&gt;we like to distribute small bedside favors at Christmas time and Easter.&lt;br /&gt;Our Lay Readers' also require help financially to purchase sermon material,&lt;br /&gt;devotional booklets etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(THE BISHOP'S EXECUTIVE COUNCIL HAS APPROVED THIS LETTER)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last year we realized the need for a "Prayer&lt;br /&gt;Book Service" in large bold print. This was going to prove a costly&lt;br /&gt;venture. The total amount required was one thousand, four hundred and&lt;br /&gt;seventeen dollars and eighty cents. We stepped forward in faith believing&lt;br /&gt;the Holy Spirit would help us in time. There were many many hours spent&lt;br /&gt;planning and preparing for the production of this book. A total of fourteen&lt;br /&gt;meetings were held and on an average of four hours per meeting at&lt;br /&gt;the Diocesan House. Finally we placed our order for the number of books&lt;br /&gt;we required for diocesan use. They arrived and so did the bill ! However,&lt;br /&gt;in one day we raised almost the entire amount - save two hundred dollars.&lt;br /&gt;The book was paid for by the Lay Readers' involved in the Nursing Home&lt;br /&gt;Ministry themselves. It was a worthy project but now we need your help&lt;br /&gt;as members of the Vestry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Saturday evening, February 2nd., 1974 - we&lt;br /&gt;plan to sponsor a Dinner and Dance open to the entire Diocesan Family and&lt;br /&gt;their friends. It will be held at the "Pellamwood House" 3300 Transit Road., -&lt;br /&gt;at Clinton, West Seneca, N.Y. All proceeds from this project will be given&lt;br /&gt;to the Nursing Home Ministry within our own Diocese in order to better&lt;br /&gt;support the elderly and infirm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are asking each Parish to act as a "Patron."&lt;br /&gt;Will you please help us ? We have at the present no funds of our own.&lt;br /&gt;We shall gladly print your Parish's name on the Dinner Menu if you will&lt;br /&gt;respond by acting as a Patron.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We invite all members of each Vestry and their&lt;br /&gt;spouses; also their friends. As a Committee, may we suggest respectfully&lt;br /&gt;that you treat your Clergyman and his wife to this event ? It would be&lt;br /&gt;so nice to see and have with us the Clergy of our Diocese. We do sincerely&lt;br /&gt;thank you for your kindness in reading this long but important letter.&lt;br /&gt;Please send your check to the address listed below in the lower left hand&lt;br /&gt;corner. Thank you once again. We remain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Very sincerely yours,&lt;br /&gt;THE DINNER-DANCE COMMITTEE&lt;br /&gt;NURSING HOME MINISTRY - LAY READERS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PLEASE SEND YOUR CHECK TO: Mr. Albert L. Knobloch,&lt;br /&gt;1114 Delaware Avenue,&lt;br /&gt;Buffalo, New York, 14209.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PLEASE MAKE CHECK OUT TO: " DINNER DANCE-NURSING HOME MINISTRY. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DINNER DANCE TICKET $8.00 PER PERSON.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WE RESPECTFULLY SUGGEST EACH MISSION OR CHURCH USE THEIR OWN DISCRETION&lt;br /&gt;WITH REGARD TO HOW MUCH THEY WILL GIVE TOWARD THIS PROJECT.
