		Hawthorne's life flowed tranquilly for the next three years, at the end of which period he was removed by the Whig administration, under (in that case, at least) the pernicious doctrine of rotation in office.
		Bridge for her good-wishes as respects my future removal from office, but I should be sorry to anticipate such bad-fortune as being ever again appointed to one.
		Hawthorne's feelings towards Salem and its inhabitants, as shown in the above letter, may be accounted for somewhat by the circumstances and surroundings of his boyhood.

		Hawthorne was much interested in her account of the persons she had met and the places she had visited, but more especially of her journey in Spain.
		Hawthorne looked on with amused approval (even when our performances were rather revolutionary), as she saw us engaging, with great glee, in improving matters generally.
		Hawthorne's residence at Lenox was marked not only by the production of the "House of the Seven Gables," but by that of the "Wonder-Book for Girls and Boys," a volume of three hundred pages, which he wrote in seven weeks, his facility for labor increasing with the public demand for his writings.

		I have thought that, as a corollary to the foregoing sketches of Hawthorne, some of his wife's letters to me might fittingly be contributed, in order to show his manliness and loving devotion to his wife and family, as well as in displaying more fully some of his finer characteristics.
		Bridge once, and then in the street in Boston, after your departure, for I found it impossible to call upon her before the birth of my little boy.
		Hawthorne has really been very ill all winter, and not well, by any means, for a much longer time; not ill in bed, but miserable on a lounge or sofa, and quite unable to write a word, even a letter, and lately unable to read.

		Hawthorne; in the able biography of "Nathaniel Hawthorne and his Wife," by their son; and in the interesting "Study of Hawthorne," by his son-in-law; to say nothing of the sketches of the romance writer by Fields, Curtis, Stoddard, James, and others.
		To this irregular household Hawthorne came to spend a month with me; and doubtless it was a pleasure to him--as it certainly was a great one to me--that we could thus enjoy a few weeks' reunion, without ceremony and without restraint.
		Hawthorne's visit (all too soon for me) came to an end; and shortly afterwards the Frenchman--having finished his teaching in the village-- went away to "seek pastures new," and I saw him no more.

	13, Pers. Recoll. Nath. Hawthorne, H. Bridge, 1893
		Hawthorne, always delicate, being unfavorably affected by the English climate, the President, in 1855, considerately thought it might be beneficial to her, as well as gratifying to her husband, if he were transferred to a post where the climate was milder, and where Hawthorne himself would hold a diplomatic instead of a consular position.
		Hawthorne's health resulted from the visit that the contemplated resignation was deferred until after the election of President Buchanan.
		Whether her theories were wholly visionary or not, she had the courage of her convictions, opposed as they were to the settled belief of the rest of the world, and she lived and died a martyr to the truth of history, as she regarded it.

		Hawthorne himself has left no word concerning his mother, of favorable or unfavorable import, but it seems probable that he owed his genius to her, if he can be said to have owed it to any of his ancestors.
		Hawthorne himself says nothing of this, for it was not his way to express admiration for man or woman, but we can believe that he felt the same affection for the doctor that well-behaved boys commonly do for their old masters.
		Bridge, however, had cautioned Goodrich not to inform Hawthorne of his share in the enterprise, and the consequence of this was that he shortly received a letter from Hawthorne, informing him of the good news—which he knew already—and praising Goodrich, to whom he proposed to dedicate his new volume.

	Educational Paperback Association
		Nathaniel Hawthorne, novelist and short-story writer, was born in Salem, Mass., the son of Nathaniel Hathorne and Elizabeth Clarke (Manning) Hathorne.
		During July and August he visited his good friend Bridge, in Maine, and into his notebook went "hints for characters" and "remarkables," observed from the banks of the Kennebec, where immigrant laborers, encamped in shanties with their families, were at work on a milldam.
		Hawthorne was, moreover, one of the so-called literary exiles, who, once uprooted intellectually, could not survive transplanting: and this mental atrophy only aggravated his social isolation.
