Plot for a Novel on a Loyalist in the American War
A London essay presents a historical novel plot based on Richard Lippincott a New Jersey loyalist who hanged Captain Huddy after Huddy executed Philip White. Washington’s demands for surrender and the risky Asgill execution lead to intervention by England and France before Asgill is released. The tale notes Lippincott’s later life in Canada and hints at a grand dramatic arc.

The Trapdoor Spider Lesson From St Nicholas
In Helen Harcourt’s St Nicholas tale a trapdoor spider hides under moss, defending its burrow with clever concealment and strength. The piece blends natural observation with playful narration as readers observe how the spider guards its home and resists intrusion. The second excerpt notes Roger Bacon’s suggestion of spectacles around 1285 in Italy, with early bans on women using them.
