From volume 2 of the work.
​PETRUCCI, Ottaviano Dei, an illustrious printer, the father of the art of type-music-printing, was born of a good family at Fossombrone, between Ancona and Urbino, June 14 [App. p.746 "June 18"], 1466. Before 1498 he had established himself at Venice; for on May 25 of that year he obtained from the Seignory the sole privilege, for 20 years, of printing 'figured music' (canto figurato) and music in the tablature of the organ and lute—a privilege which he exercised there till about 1511. At that date he left the Venetian business in the hands of Amadeo Scotti and Nicolò da Raphael, and returned to Fossombrone, where, on Oct. 22, 1513, he obtained a patent from Pope Leo X for the monopoly of music-printing in the Roman States for 15 years. His latest work is dated 1523, and shortly after that he probably died [App. p.746 "he died May 7, 1539".
Petrucci's process was a double one; he printed first the lines of the stave, and then, by a second impression, the notes upon them. In fact he discovered a method of doing by the press what the German printers of patronendruck or pattern-printing, had done by hand. His work is beautifully executed. The 'register,' or fit, of the notes on the lines is perfect; the ink is a fine black, and the whole effect is admirable. But the process was expensive, and was soon superseded by printing in one impression, which appears to have been first successfully accomplished by Oglin of Augsburg in 1507.

* ↑ The method of printing by double impression—so as to obtain the stave lines continuous without the breaks inevitable in printing by a single impression—was patented by Scheurmann in 1866. [See Scheurmann.]

# A Dictionary of the Booksellers and Printers who Were at Work in England, Scotland and Ireland from 1641 to 1667/Dugard (William)

​DUGARD (WILLIAM), schoolmaster and printer in London; Merchant Taylors School; 1644-62. Born at the Hodges on the Lickhaynde in Shipley Yield, in the parish of Bromsgrove, in the County of Worcester, on January 9th, 1605; King's scholar at Worcester School, graduated M.A. at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, was successively usher of Oundle School in Northamptonshire, Master of the Free School in Stamford, co. Lincoln, Master of the Free School in Colchester, co. Essex, and in 1644 was appointed Master of the Merchant Taylors School in London. About this time he became a member of the Stationers' Company and set up a private printing press at the school. William Dugard's name first appears in the Registers of the Company on September 11th, 1648, when he entered a school book entitled Rhetorice Elementa. In 1649 he printed the first edition of the Eikon Basilike, and followed it with Salmasius' Defensio Regia. This roused the ire of the Council of State, which immediately ordered his arrest, seized his presses and implements, and wrote to the governors of the school directing them to dismiss him. The governors, however, contented themselves with desiring him to relinquish his press work. Sir James Harrington, author of Oceana, and John Milton interceded with the Council on his behalf, and persuaded him at the same time to give up the Royal cause. Upon this his presses were restored to him and he was appointed Printer to "His Highnes the Lord Protector." In addition to his official work, and also the writing, editing and printing of many school books, he printed John Milton's answer to Salmasius; an edition of Sir Philip Sidney's Arcadia and miscellaneous works, in 1655; a three volume quarto edition of Luther's Table Talk, and Selden's Mare Clausum, 1652. But he was again in trouble in 1651-2 for printing the Catechesis Ecclesiarum. This book and some others the Council of State ordered to be burnt. In 1661 W. Dugard was dismissed from his post at Merchant Taylors' School and set up a private school in White's Alley in Coleman Street. He died December 3rd, 1662. By his will he left £10 worth of his own books to Syon College and the rest of his property to his daughter Lydia. [P.C.C. 153, Laud.] From the numerous transfers noted in the Registers after his death, it is ​evident that William Dugard had an interest in a large number of copyrights. His work as a printer will bear favourable comparison with the best of the period. His press was furnished with a good assortment of type, but how far he was his own compositor and pressman, and whether all the books bearing his name were really printed by him, are questions difficult to answer.

​The Free Age Press is an earnest effort to spread those deep convictions in which the noblest spirits of every age and race have believed—that man’s true aim and happiness is “unity in reason and love”; the realisation of the brotherhood of all men: that we must all strive to eradicate, each from himself, those false ideas, false feelings, and false desires—personal, social, religious, economic—which alienate us one from another and produce nine-tenths of all human suffering.
Of these truly Christian and universal religious aspirations the writings of Leo Tolstoy are to-day perhaps the most definite expression, and it is to the production of very cheap editions of his extant religious, social and ethical works, together with much unpublished matter and his new writings, to which we have special access (being in close touch with Tolstoy), that we are at present confining ourselves. We earnestly trust that all who sympathise will continue to assist us by every means in their power, and help te make the publications yet more widely known. It is Tolstoy’s desire that his books shall not be copyrighted, and as we share this view all Free Age Press translations and editions (with one, as yet unavoidable exception), are and will be issued free of copyright and may be reprinted by anyone. We have already commenced to collect all Tolstoy’s essays into more permanent cloth bound volumes.
Suggestions, inquiries, offers of help and co-operation will be gratefully welcomed. For the hundreds of sympathetic letters and the practical help in making known and circulating the books which we have received already, we are very grateful, and tender our hearty thanks

These tales of "dear dead women" of the last century, to which Mr. Hardy has given a slight seeming thread of connection by putting them into the mouths of different members of "one of the Wessex' Field and Antiquarian clubs," have much the same sort of fascination that one feels in reading the tales of the Arabian Nights. [...] Mr. Hardy's ten noble dames (with very varying degrees of noble instinct) move in a background of delightful rural scenery and stately domestic architecture of court, and hall, and manor house. —The Nation, July 23, 1891.

# A Maiden Lady

From the "Bric-à-Brac" section of The Century Magazine, Aug 1885
A Maiden Lady.
Of a summer afternoon,
In her parlor window there,
She would sit, her meek face showing
Delicately long and fair,
Sewing on some dainty garment, no one ever saw her wear.
She'd be dressed in cool old muslin
With a lilac pattern dim;
Full soft skirt, and pointed body
Cut severely straight and prim
Maiden-dress and maiden lady, sober, delicate and prim.
She seemed not with love acquainted;
Half too fine to hold him dear.
Folk spoke shyly of love-matters,
With this maiden lady near,
With a feeling it were converse hardly suited to her ear.
When she cried, poor, shy old maiden,
Her artless secret saw the sun:
She had been with love acquainted,
Always, just like any one:
But had kept him in a closet hidden, as a skeleton.
Mary E. Wilkins.

# A Naval Biographical Dictionary/Hicks, Edward Buller

Layout 4
​HICKS. (Lieutenant, 1812. f-p., 11; h-p., 29.)
Edward Buller Hicks was born, 15 Sept. 1792, in Devonshire, and died 9 Feb. 1845, at Newport, Isle of Wight. He was youngest son of the late Admiral Thos. Hicks; brother of the late Commander Thos. Bickerton Ashton Hicks, R.N.; and godson of Vice-Admiral Sir Edw. Buller, Bart. Paternally he was descended of an old Gloucestershire family; and through his mother he claimed kindred with Lord Chancellor Hyde. Among his ancestors was the distinguished Capt. Jasper Hicks, who, in conjunction with the equally gallant Capt. Jumper, in the barges of their respective ships, attacked and took the Mole of Gibraltar.
This officer entered the Navy, 28 Feb. 1805, as Midshipman, on board the Foudroyant 80, commanded by his brother-in-law, Capt. Edw. Kendall, with whom, until the following Oct., he served in the Channel under the flag of Sir Thos. Graves. In June, 1806, he re-embarked on board the Malta 84, Capt. Edw. Buller, in which ship, after witnessing the capture, on 27 of the next Sept., of the French 44-gun frigate Le Président, he proceeded to the Mediterranean; where, in the summer of 1807, he removed to the Queen 98, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Geo. Martin. Between Oct. 1808 and Aug. 1812 we find him successively employed at home, off Cadiz (during the siege of which place he aided in the boats at the defence of Fort Matagorda), again in the Mediterranean, and at Newfoundland, on board the Salvador del Mondo and San Josef, flag-ships of Admirals Wm. Young and Sir John Thos. Duckworth, Hibernia 110, Capt. Rich. Dalling Dunn, and Antelope 50, bearing also the flag of Sir J. T. Duckworth. He then became Acting-Lieutenant of the Electra sloop, Capt. Wm. Gregory, in which vessel (being confirmed to her by commission dated 2 Dec. 1812) he continued to serve on the Newfoundland station until April, 1814, contributing during that period to the capture, after a short running fight, of the American privateer Growler, of 5 guns and 60 men. His last appointments were, in July and Sept. 1815, to the Tigre and Spencer 74’s, Capts. John Halliday and Wm. Robt. Broughton, both lying at Plymouth. The latter ship was paid off 31 Aug. 1818.
Lieut. Hicks married, 1 June, 1820, Sarah, only daughter of the late Thos. Atkinson, Esq., of Berry House, co. Hants.
