Something About Molly

HER FIRST LITERARY EFFORT
The Story of "Little Jarvis" Which

the Critics.

The publication OF the new serial, "a

iterar y event.. The author, Molly Elliot
Seawell, has the reputation of being one
of the best delineators Of naval life, and
this story, written for THE CALL, will
rank with the best efforts of her genius.
The following sketch of Miss SeawelI,
from the pen of William Walsh. late
editor of Lippincott's Magazine, will be
read with interest:

of Virginia as broken-down oligarchy-

Naturally. we of the editorial rooms were
anxious for more from the same source,
and it was at my suggestion that Miss
Seawell wrote for the magazine her first
novel, HALE Weston" She claims this as
her excuse for having written novel at

seize the salient points of this interesting
and picturesque life needed a nimbe in
teIlect, q sympathetic nature and a good
stock of humOr. These good gifts Miss
Seawell had, and in addition she possessed
an elegance of manner that betrays her
familiarity with the best English litera-
ture. AS Scott said OF Jane Austen, she
does not attempt the big bow-wow style.
but confines herself TO the dainty yet vital
iZing touches that add color IL incident and
give breath Of life to pictured women and

More than any of our current authors she
approaches the standard of Jane Austen.
