No particulars of her childhood have reached me, except that, like Charlotte Bronte, she developed a talent for improvising stories at an early age, and that while at school she wrote poems, and began to write novels. At the close of our civil war her parents emi- grated to the United States, and settled at Newmarket, a small village in Eastern Ten- nessee, some twenty-five miles from Knox- ville. About a year later they removed to Knoxville, where, at the age of sixteen, she completed a story ...which she had planned, and partly written, in her thirteenth year, and sent it to a Boston periodical. It was accepted, and an early insertion promised; but, as the editor stated that no remuneration could be given for it, she reclaimed it, and sent it to " Godey's Lady's Book," where it was published, paid for, and followed by other stories. From Godey's she passed to " Peterson's Magazine," for which she wrote FRANCES HODGSON BURNETT. 67 largely. The turning-point in her literary- fortunes was " Surly Tim's Trouble," an English dialect story, which she sent to the editor of " Scribner's Monthly." It was published there ; and the writer, Miss Frances Hodgson, was invited to furnish more stories, which she hastened to do.
