received scores of letters from yotmng ladles ,

and , I think , would do It very wehi , but that ,

have salll that they do not consider 'Tnhlby'

Apropos at "Tnilby" and the song "Dcn
Bolt . " which Is Introduced Into the story , II
Is InterestIng to know that Dr , Thomas Dunn
Englsh ) , who wrote "Den Del , " Is I restdent
of Newark N. J. , and Is about 7G years old.
Ills versatilIty seems to have been illImitable ,
for ho has achieve more or less renown asa
a poet novelist , dramatist , physician , lawyer ,
and politIcian . TIme American Encyclopedia
credited him with being the author at twenty
successful dramas , with haying written
drnmls wih wrllen several -
oral books anti poems and with having acquired -
quired distinction In various other ways , but
ho wi always bo remembered , probably , as
'
thme'authbr of "Ben Bolt . "
Some of his friends say that Dr. English
Englsh
Is not less than SO years old , an dthe records
show that he graduated from the University
at Pennsyynnla ] In the class of IS35 , but the
75. doctor Insists , nevertheless , than his ago Is
75.I must be admitted even then that he Is
young hooking ] for his age , for alhough his
line drooping mustache Is almost white , his
head Is covered with 1 mass of dark hair In
which silvery strands have only begun to
appear. Dr. English Is a democratc member
at congress tram New Jersey , amid was defeated -
feated for re-election In the recent landslide. ]
'When asked the other day how he came to
write time song , Dr. English sid It was nn
indiscretIon that he had committed fifty
commied ffy
years ago. He wrote the hines at the no-
quest of N. P. WIllis . editor at the New Mirror -
ror , In 1843 , who wanted something ( In the
natur at , a sea song , and sent them to Mr.
Wiis with II' note teling him that It lie
didn't want thel not to return but to burn
theni
The song pleased Mr. Willis , who published
It prominently , and It was copied exten-
sively In English papers without credit
finally coming to be regarded as ot BrItish
orgln. ] After I beamo popular Dr. Eng-
hishm wrote some music for the lines . but an-
other composer , lVlllm Kneass , had fore-
staled him , and tIme music at Mr. Kneass
remained atached to time lines.
Since then time fang has been sung all over
time world and has had n mono permanent I
popularity thnn any other song In time Eng-
lieu hauuguage It Is revIved every now and
then , and bids fiiI to be as much ot a rage
as It was between forty anti fifty years ago.
