Use of Quill Pens.

In the good old days before steel
and other metallic pens were invented
pen used to be defined as "a quill
taken from the pinions of one goose
to spread the opinions of another" :"
The quill is not entirely out of use yet
Mr.. George Meredith is said to be
of the group of authors who remain
faithful to the old-fashioned quill pen.
There be those who believe that no
work of genius can be produced with
anything else in the way of pens, and
the authorities of the British museum
seem TO agree with them, for they still
offer to visitors the good old goose
