PIONEER WOMAN EDITOR.

Mr.. Co1nells Walter Richards the Aged
journalist Of the Boston Transcript.
Mrs Cornelia Walter Richards has
been brought into notice the present
week by the occurrence Of her seventy
fifth birthday. She was the first woman
editor in the country. The Boston Tran
script wa started a a very small even
ing paper toward 80 years ago by Dutton
q Wentworth, o firm of Boston printers
who had the state printing. They en-
gagged Lynde M. Walter. . cultivated
gentleman, to edit it.
His health soon failed, and he became
too ill to do much manual work. In this
emergency his sister, Miss Cornelia
Walter, acted as his amanuensis. When
he died, Miss Walter was engaged to
take his place. This was before the time
woman's rights wcrc much talked of.
The Transcript had o peculiar tea ia
bic sphere, and Miss Walter successfully
fitted into it. The paper had not a wide
general scope, though there was some
thing like q digest of the more impor-
tant news of the day in it, which Miss
Walter prepared, and she also provided
what was thought necessary Of the local
news of Boston with the aid Of n re-
porter, her sole assistant. She edited
The Transcript in this way for o few
years and constantly wrote for it's col
umns, leaving tho paper to marry q gen
