C. M. Haile's ""Pardon Jones"" Letters

C. M. Haile's ""Pardon Jones"" Letters

Louisiana State University Press
2009
sidottu
From 1840 to 1848, journalist C. M. Haile published a series of mock letters-to-the-editor in the New Orleans Picayune under the pseudonym ""Pardon Jones."" With their rural dialect, outlandish and amusing characters, and farcical situations, the letters proved extremely popular with readers and became a regular feature in the newspaper. In C. M. Haile's ""Pardon Jones"" Letters, Ed Piacentino collects all of Haile's sixty-seven epistles, highlighting this trove of Old Southwest humor and the prolific writer's foremost literary achievement.The humor of the Old Southwest flourished in the sparsely settled frontier regions of Georgia, the Carolinas, Louisiana, and other southern states from the 1830s to the end of the Civil War, with amateur humorists anonymously or pseudonymously publishing pieces written in backwoods vernacular in their local and regional newspapers. Like others in the genre, Haile's ""Pardon Jones"" letters gently burlesque the eccentricities, scams, scrapes, and other misadventures of his plain folk characters. Unlike his contemporaries, however, Haile also used his mock epistles to discuss key political matters of the day, imbuing his characters with a liberal voice and an engaging dramatic presence. Set in three different venues - Louisiana, Massachusetts, and Mexico - the letters allude to national issues such as the tariff debate, boundary disputes between the United States and Canada, the controversy over a national bank, the conflict between states' rights and nationalism, and the debate over the annexation of Texas. Uniquely among Old Southwest humorists, Haile wrote from Mexico of Americans' encounter with a culture that lay south of the United States. By choosing to emphasise the marginalized Mexican ""other,"" Haile expanded the contours of Old Southwest humor and imaginatively enriched the sociocultural milieu of his fictive letters. Piacentino's informative introduction provides a meticulously researched account of Haile's life and career. His annotations identify obscure allusions throughout the book, and a glossary provides help with words and phrases of the dialect and with other unfamiliar references. With his lively ""Pardon Jones"" letters, C. M. Haile gave common folk a voice, a privilege rarely afforded to them in earlier American literature.

The Crimson Sweater (1906). By: Ralph Henry Barbour: NOVEL, Illustrated By: C. M. Relyea (April 23, 1863 - 1932) was an American illustrator.
First published 1905. Illustrated by C. M. Relyea. It is pretty safe to say that no writer for young folks can write of boarding-school life so interestingly as Ralph Henry Barbour. His latest book for boys is The Crimson Sweater, and is the best he has done. The girls will like it, too, for the heroine of the story is the daughter of the headmaster of the school. Ralph Henry Barbour (November 13, 1870 - February 19, 1944) was an American novelist, who primarily wrote popular works of sports fiction for boys. In collaboration with L. H. Bickford, he also wrote as Richard Stillman Powell, notably Phyllis in Bohemia. Other works included light romances and adventure. Biography: During his career, Barbour produced more than 100 novels as well as a number of short stories................... Charles Mark Relyea (April 23, 1863 - 1932) was an American illustrator whose work appeared in magazines and popular novels in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Life and career: Relyea was a native of Albany, New York, and spent most of his early years in Rochester. He studied art under Thomas Eakins at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and under Frank Vincent DuMond at the Art Students League in New York City before completing his training in Paris. After returning to the United States, he made his home in New Rochelle, New York. His illustrations appeared in the children's magazine St. Nicholas, as well as magazines for broader audiences, such as Munsey's. In 1897, a publishing house chose Relyea to illustrate The Rub iy t of Doc Sifers, Hoosier poet James Whitcomb Riley's poem satirizing The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. Because Relyea was not from Indiana, Riley insisted that he visit the state before making his drawings, to ensure that he would not misrepresent Indiana or caricature its residents. Selected works: Books with illustrations by Charles M. Relyea include: The Rub iy t of Doc Sifers (James Whitcomb Riley, 1897) Standard First Reader (1902), published by Funk & Wagnalls Children of the Tenements (Jacob A. Riis, 1903) A Defective Santa Claus (James Whitcomb Riley, 1904) Her Brother's Letters (Anonymous, 1906) Just Patty (1911) Left Tackle Thayer (Ralph Henry Barbour, 1915), Dodd, Mead & Company The Slipper Point Mystery (1921)....
