"That truth should be silent I had almost forgot"--Enobarbus in ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA, back in Rome after having been too long in Egypt.--------- Melville's PIERRE, Book 4, chapter 5: "Something ever comes of all persistent inquiry; we are not so continually curious for nothing."

Does anyone remember Cousin Stark Young and his SO RED THE ROSE?
He writes his real family names into SO RED THE ROSE. He and his McGehee uncles go right back to Thomas Mackgehee 1663-1724, as I do. I have McGehee stories aplenty for GLIMPSES, but I have to pick out a passage to go in 1934, when SO RED THE ROSE was published. It's always a pleasure to see a cousin succeed and live a long life.
