Roger Norton took an active part in the proceedings between his father and Robert Barker the Second in the matter of the King's Printing House, and with his brother John broke into the premises by night and carried off the whole of the stock and printing materials. At the Restoration he petitioned to be appointed King's printer on the grounds that the decree made in the Court of Chancery was illegal, and that he had been of service to His Majesty during the late troubles, both by printing letters and papers and by sheltering those who came from abroad on His Majesty's service. His claim was not allowed. Roger Norton died April 1st, 1662, and his death is recorded by Smyth in his Obituary (p. 55): "Mr. Roger Norton printer in Blackffriers died, whose daughter my coz D$^r$ Thos. Clutterbuck marr$^d$."

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

​OGILBY (JOHN), author, translator, and publisher in London; Whitefriars, 1600-76. John Ogilby was neither a bookseller nor a printer by trade, but from the facts that he was the promoter of some of the finest books issued during this period, and that he was his own publisher, and even organised lotteries for the sale of his books, he is entitled to notice. He began life as a dancing master, then became schoolmaster to the Earl of Strafford's children. During the troubles of the Civil War he lost everything, was shipwrecked on his way from Ireland, and arrived in London penniless. He proceeded to Cambridge on foot, and was there given Latin lessons by some of the scholars. He also is said to have learnt Greek about the same time. At the Restoration he was made Master of the Revels in Ireland. He was besides given the titles of "king's cosmographer" and "geographic printer." He died September 4th, 1676, and was buried in St. Bride's Church, Fleet Street. Ogilby spared no cost in the production of his books, which were printed by the best men, with the best type, and on the best paper procurable, with illustrations drawn and engraved by the first artists and engravers of the period. A magnificent example of the typography of the period is his translation of the Works of Virgil, printed by Thomas Roycroft in 1658. To facilitate the sale of his books Ogilby was allowed to establish a lottery in which all the prizes were his own works. A copy of the prospectus for one of these lotteries is amongst the Bagford fragments. During the last years of his life he devoted himself to the production of books of geography and topography.

KNORRING, BARONESS,
Is a novelist of some note. Mrs. Mary Howitt, who translated one of her works, "The Peasant and his Landlord," says, "The Baroness Knorring stands (in her own country) side by side with the author of 'Home' and the 'Neighbours.'" These excellent ladies. Miss Bremer and the Baroness Knorring, are doing much for the improvement in morals as well as literary taste of the Swedish people. The last-named writer takes an earnest part in the temperance cause. "The Peasant and his Landlord" is a story in point, affording "one more of the many demonstrations which we meet with, of the highest and purest natures being driven from their proper course, and oppressed and perverted by the worst. It affords, also, a grand lessen on the subject of temperance, and proves that though one false step often leads to ruin, which is retrievable only by death, yet that uprightness and virtue, through suffering and through death, work out their own salvation."

KÖNIGSMARK, MARIE AURORE, COUNTESS OF,
One of the numerous mistresses of Augustus the Second, King of Poland and Elector of Saxony, was born in 1678. She was descended from one of the oldest families in Brandenburg, and was a woman of great beauty and talents, and of uncommon political abilities. Thoroughly educated, she spoke several languages, played on various instruments, composed music, and sang and painted with great skill; she also excelled in conversation. In 1678 she went to Dresden, and. at first sight, Augustus, fell |n love with her. She rejected his ​overtures for some time, but at last yielded, and became the mother of the famous Marshal Saxe. When the love of Augustus declined, the Countess of Königsmark conducted herself so discreetly that he always remained her friend. By his influence she was appointed superintendent of Quedlinberg, in 1700, where she remained till her death, in 1728. She was beloved by all around her, and was very kind to the poor.

KIRCH, MARY MARGARET,
Of Leipsic, Germany, was the daughter of Matthias Winkelman, a Lutheran divine. She married, in 1692, Godfrey Kirch, an eminent astronomer, of Luben, in Lower Lusatia, who, when appointed royal astronomer, in 1700, in the academy of sciences at Berlin, found in his wife an intelligent assistant, and an able calculator. She discovered, in 1702, a comet; and. In 1707, she observed that remarkable Aurora Borealis which the astronomers of Europe noticed in their memoirs. The husband died in 1710, and the following year his wife published "A Discourse on the approaching Conjunction of Jupiter, Saturn, &c." She was equally eminent for her private virtues as for her talents, and died at Berlin, in 1720, aged fifty.

KIRKLAND, CAROLINE M.,
Whose maiden name was Stansbury, was born in New York. At an early age she was married to Mr. William Kirkland, a scholar of great acquirements, and also highly esteemed as a man of much moral excellence of character. At the time of their marriage he resigned a professorship in Hamilton College, and established a seminary in the town of Goshen, on Lake Seneca. A few years afterwards he removed with his family to the then new State of Michigan, and made that experiment of "Forest Life," which gave opportunity for the development of Mrs. Kirkland's lively and observant genius, and also furnished material for her racy and entertaining works on Western manners and habits.
In 1839, her first book, "A New Home—Who'll Follow? or, Glimpses of Western Life.—By Mrs. Mary Clavers, an Actual Settler," was published in Boston. The freshness of feeling and piquancy of style displayed in the work, won the public voice at once, and its author gained a celebrity very flattering to a literary ​débutant. This may be considered, on the whole, Mrs. Kirkland's best production, without disparaging its successors.
In 1842, Mr. and Mrs. Kirkland returned to New York, where Mr. Kirkland became proprietor of a journal of a religious and literary character, the editing of which was in accordance with his views and tastes. Mrs. Kirkland now engaged in that profession which we think more deserving of honour than mere literary pursuits; she became teacher and guide of a select school for young ladies, whom she received into her own family. She did not, however, abandon her pen, and in 1845 appeared "Western Clearings," a series of stories founded on her reminiscences of life in the West. These had before appeared in "Annuals," written for the occasion and without connection, and can only be judged separately, as clever of their kind; some are very charming, and some highly humorous; we would instance "The Schoolmaster's Progress" as among the latter, and "Half-Lengths from Life" as an excellent specimen of Mrs. Kirkland's sensible and just mode of thinking, and her happy manner of describing character.
The sudden death of her husband devolving on Mrs. Kirkland the whole care of her children, called forth her energies as an author in a new manner. She became editor of a monthly periodical, published in New York, called "The Union Magazine." in 1848, this was transferred to Philadelphia, and is now known as "Sartain's;" she still continues one of its editors.
In 1848, Mrs. Kirkland visited the Old World; she has recorded her impressions in a work entitled "Holidays Abroad," a pleasant volume. Beside her natural gifts, Mrs. Kirkland is a woman of highly cultivated mind; and from her extensive opportunities for reading and observation, we may reasonably hope for some work from her pen superior to any she has yet given the public.

KILLIGREW, CATHARINE,
Daughter of Sir Anthony Cooke, was born at Giddy-hall, in Essex, about 1530; and married Henry Killigrew, Esq., a Cornish gentleman, who was knighted, for the good service he did his country when an ambassador. This lady, having an excellent education, and much natural talent, became, like many other women of her time, very learned. She understood Hebrew, Greek, and Latin, and was famous for her poetical skill. Her lines in the latter language, addressed to her sister Mildred, refer, as Dr. Fuller ​thinks, to Sir Henry Killigrew, when about to be sent ambassador to France, which, as the times were troublesome, was not a desirable mission.

KIRCHGESSNER, MARIANNE,
Was born, 1770, at Bruchsal. The loss of her eye-sight, in her fourth year, by the small-pox, seemed rather to have augmented than lessened her talent for music. In the sixth year of her age, she astonished her auditors by her execution on the piano. Taught by Schmittbaur, in Carlsruhe, she made the most extraordinary progress. In company with Mr. Bassler (her biographer,) she travelled, in her tenth year, over Germany, where she received everywhere great applause; and, 1794, she went to London. Her abode there, of three years, besides the perfecting of her art, was useful to her on account of her eye-sight having become partly restored. In November, 1796, she visited Copenhagen, and went from thence to St. Petersburg; and after having gained just approbation and well-merited reward in all these places, she chose the beautiful village of Gahles, near Leipsic, for her dwelling-place. She remained there until 1807, in the society of her friend, Mr. Bassler, when she intended to go back to her native country; but at Schaffhausen she had a violent attack of fever, of which she died, on the 9th. of December, in her thirty-eighth year.

KOERTEN, JOANNA,
A celebrated Dutch artist, was born at Amsterdam, in 1650. She married Adrian Block, and attained great excellence in drawing, painting, and embroidery. She also modelled in wax, made artificial ornaments, and flowers; but her principal excellence was in cutting figures oat of paper with the scissors; and her portraits and landscapes in this way were so celebrated, that foreigners visited Amsterdam to see them, amongst whom was Peter the Great, of Russia. Sea-pieces, animals, architecture, and still-life, were her favourite subjects; hut she also cut portraits on paper with as striking a resemblance as if they had been painted by the ablest artists. The elector-palatine offered her one thousand florins for three small pictures of her cutting, which she refused as insufficient. At the request of the emperor of Germany, she designed a trophy with the arms of the empire, ornamented with laurel crowns, wreaths of flowers, and other suitable designs, which she executed with great correctness of drawing and wonderful beauty. The empress gave her for it four thousand florins. She also cut the emperor's portrait, which is hung up in the imperial cabinet at Vienna, She died in 1715, aged sixty-five.

KLOPSTOCK, MARGARET, or META,
Whose maiden name was Moller, was born in Hamburg, March 19th., 1728. In 1751, the famous Frederic Gottleib Klopstock became acquainted with this enthusiastic German maiden. The story of their courtship and marriage has been told by the lady herself, in some charming letters addressed to Richardson the novelist, author of "Sir Charies Grandison."
Mrs. Klopstock died in childbirth, and the poor bereaved husband and father was left desolate! In a letter to a friend, Klopstock describes the manner of her death and their last parting. After having prayed with her for a long time, he said, as he bent over her, "Be my guardian angel, if God permits." "You have ever been mine," she replied. And when with stifled voice he again repeated, "If God permits, be my guardian angel!" she fixed her eyes upon him full of love, and said, "Ah, who tffould not be your guardian angel!"
Just before she died, she said, with the serene smile of an angel, "My love, you will follow me!"
Some time after her decease, Klopstock published her writings, which are, "Letters from the Dead to the Living;" "The Death of Abel," a tragedy; and several small poems. Her husband says that these were written entirely for her own amusement, and that she always blushed and was very much embarrassed whenever he found her writing, and expressed a wish to see what she had done. He ​says, too, "that her taste was correct, and highly cultivated, and that her criticisms upon his poetry were always extremely apt and judicious; he knew instantly by her countenance, whether his thoughts pleased her; and so perfect was their sympathy, that their souls could hold delightful communion almost without the aid of language,"
