Tennyson's Life and 19th Century News Snapshots
A brief sketch of Alfred Tennyson's early life, education at Trinity College, and early poetic achievements. The piece notes his marriage in 1850, the influence of the Crimean War on his work, and the eventual rise with The Idylls of the King and subsequent plays. It also includes fragmented reports on weather and grain markets, oil output from Stevensville, and a political notice about wage reductions at Crescent Iron Works. Regular items cover French sentiments in Canada and a prize promotion by a publishing firm.
