# Letter from Florence Earle Coates to Amos Niven Wilder (22 January 1924)

Philadelphia, Jan. 22 1924
A few War "Retrospects",
in grateful return for the pleasure given me by your many important ones.
Florence Earle Coates.
2024 Spruce Street, Philadelphia.
Dear Mr. Wilder:—
Recalling the many kindnesses for which I am indebted to you, you will be tempted to imagine that with me "out of sight is out of mind"; but so far is this from being the case that, because I have not been able to write, you have been in my thoughts a great part of the time. That, however, is not the only reason I have thought of you, for your book has been before me, and though I can read little at a time, owing to my blindness, I have constantly been charmed by new and eloquent lines.
You have, in my opinion, a fine gift of poetry and a noble command of our noble mother-tongue,—so misprized and misused in these days. Because I think you should go far, will you forgive a tiny criticism and suggestion?
While remembering that poetry should be sensuous and impassioned, "gnomic and divinely wise", do not forget that it should also be simple, and deny yourself the privilege of too many rare and aristocratic words.
How lovely are your lines to C. B. and Others! "God's high economy of pain".—The entire poem is saturated with beauty and genuine feeling, so that it brings the tears. But—dare I ask?—should it end with so large a word as "Transcendentalists?
I love the "Bruges" poems and the "Forêt de Soignes". But you have been patient and I must not go on or I shall weary you. Thanking you for all ​the pleasure you have given me, and hoping that if you come to Philadelphia you will surely let me know, I am
Faithfully and cordially yours,
Florence Earle Coates.

Nov 3 1875
My Dear Mrs Munday
I trust this will find you and yours quite well I have been trying to nerve myself to write to you for some time past but could not do so but now that James has returned and he being in very bad health wished me to write for him I need not say how glad I was to see his face once more it is nearly 3 years since he left Melbourne and 2 since dear Alice left ​we little thought how sad the return would be but it has pleased God to take our beloved one we (illegible text) to the home prechased for those that love him
James has felt the blow very much and has not been well for some time since coming home he as been suffering from a complication of (illegible text). Doctor Motherwell has been attending him for congestion of the lungs and liver he is considered very clever for those complaints he thinks there is an improvement only he is so very weak and nervous that I am afraid it will be some time before he gets strong again
God helping me I will do the same by him as if he were my own son for I can assure you my dear Mrs Munday that Mr Cook Tom and self are very much attached to him and we pray that God will restore him to perfect health again I am sure that your heart must yearn to see him once more. I felt (illegible text) though I could not rest till I saw and spoke to him again. I thank God for bringing him back although he is sadly altered. James sends his kindest love to all he says he only got 1 letter from John the others have been sent on to Freemantle but will be returned back to Melbourne and he hopes ​by the next out going mail to have them to answer and be able to write you a long and cheerful letter and I know how glad you will be to get it by my own feelings it is very rough weather just now and it affects James very much but I hope we shall have it more settled soon and be able to get him out for a drive to the beach the fresh air will do him more good than all the medicine we can give him we can only do our best and ask our Father to bless the (illegible text) to say thy will be done with all our hearts with kind regards to Mr Munday and yourself from Mr Cook and self believe me yours truly

# Letter from Florence Earle Coates to Amos Niven Wilder (25 January 1924)

2024 Spruce Street, Philadelphia.
Dear Mr. Wilder:—
This must be only a line, but I feel that a letter which has so touched me that the tears sprang to my eyes deserves some immediate response.
Yes: feeling "How few there are who hold with faith to the ardours" so dear to us, our souls grow sick sometimes with a kind of grieved loneliness. But "We judge of a man's wisdom by his hope", and we must cherish the belief that the young will return to ideals very different from those they hold to-day.
As I read your letter, the second stanza of my lines "To the Victor" recurred to my mind with a kind of exultation. "Israel was saved by the remnant", was it not?
Faithfully yours, Florence Earle Coates.

My dear Mrs Munday
I trust this will find Mr Munday and yourself recovering from the shock of your Dear Sons death I know from sad experience what a time it takes to realize that our beloved have gone and that we shall hear and see them no more in this world
I find it very hard to reconcile myself I can assure you at times it seems almost more than I can bear and I feel almost broken-hearted. Dear James death brought all my trouble about Alice back and looking over her clothes and packing up the baby things to go to new Zealand has made me feel very low spirited my back and head continue bad we had an answer from your son Walter I have no doubt he has written you by this mail he has sent Nelsons address so Mr Cook has wrote to him we will send the box home as soon as we can make the necessary arrangements. Mr Cook will not be able to send the money till the end of ​March as the beginning of April as the Insurance will not pay till about that time but he will forward it as soon as possible as we all know money is always acceptable
we have not yet got the stone up to James's grave but hope to do so next month we all went on Xmas day and took a nice bunch of flowers to lay on his grave will send you a copy of what is on the stone as soon as it is up am saving some of his favourite flowers to put on the grave while thrift fusha and myrtle the poor fellow used to sit in the garden when he could and say they are very pretty
Mother) I trust they are both better of now shall go often to the cemetery if God spares me to look at the place where he lays
Miss Yelverton said they had planted some flowers on Alices grave and I hope they will look after it am expecting a letter from them by next Mail we have sent the stone round there according to James instructions hope it will reach there safely
I trust this will find you all well we all join in whishing a happy and prosperous new year with kind regards beleave me yours sincerly

MR. STANTON, of counsel for the defendants in error, moved the court, on the 28th of February, 1851, to dismiss this case, under the fifty-fourth rule of the court, which rule is repeated amongst the preliminary matter in 8 Howard, and is as follows:--
'No. 54.
'Ordered, that where an appearance is not entered on the record for either the plaintiff or defendant on or before the second day of the term next succeeding that at which the case is docketed, it shall be dismissed at the costs of the plaintiff.'
Whereupon this court, not being now here sufficiently advised of and concerning what order to render in the premises, took time to consider.

Larman v. Tisdale's Heirs
The fifty-fourth rule applies to cases docketed at the regular term; and not to an adjourned term. For it may happen that an adjourned term may be held immediately preceding the regular session.
This case was not docketed until after the close of the regular term of the court, and is, therefore, not within the rule.
On consideration of the motion made in this case by Mr. Stanton, on a prior day of the present term, to wit, on Friday the 28th ultimo, it is now here ordered by the court, that said motion be, and the same is hereby, overruled.

# Levy v. Louisiana

Levy v. Louisiana, 391 U.S. 68 (1968), is a decision of the Supreme Court of the United States. This decision deals primarily with the civil rights of illegitimate children, specifically in regards to their ability to sue on a deceased parent's behalf. It held that the right of recovery may not be denied merely because a person is the illegitimate child of the deceased, because such a law would violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Warning: template has been deprecated.

Levy, Administratrix v. Louisiana Through the Charity Hospital of Louisiana at New Orleans Board of Administrators et al.
Appeal from the Supreme Court of Louisiana
No. 508. Argued: March 27, 1968 --- Decided: May 20, 1968
Appellant, on behalf of five illegitimate children, brought this action under a Louisiana statute (La. Civ. Code Art. 2315) for the wrongful death of their mother. The trial court dismissed the suit and the Court of Appeal affirmed, holding that a surviving "child" under the statute did not include an illegitimate child, denial of whose right of recovery was "based on morals and general welfare because it discourages bringing children into the world out of wedlock." The State Supreme Court denied certiorari.
Held: The statute as construed to deny a right of recovery under Art. 2315 by illegitimate children creates an invidious discrimination contravening the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, since legitimacy or illegitimacy of birth has no relation to the nature of the wrong allegedly inflicted on the mother. Pp. 70-72.
250 La. 25, 193 So. 2d 530, reversed.
Norman Dorsen argued the cause for appellant. With him on the brief were Adolph J. Levy, Lawrence J. Smith, and Melvin L. Wulf.
William A. Porteous III argued the cause for appellees. With him on the brief were Jack P. F. Gremillion, Attorney General of Louisiana, Dorothy D. Wolbrette and L. K. Clement, Jr., Assistant Attorneys General, and William A. Porteous, Jr.
Briefs of amici curiae, urging reversal, were filed by Leo Pfeffer and Joseph B. Robison for the Executive Council of the Episcopal Church in the U.S.A. et al., and by Harry D. Krause, Jack Greenberg, and Leroy D. Clark for the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc., et al.
Brief of amicus curiae, urging affirmance, was filed by Mr. Gremillion, pro se, William P. Schuler, Second Assistant Attorney General, and Mrs. Wolbrette and Mr. Clement for the Attorney General of Louisiana.
