ID . man OF high reputation in the
world Of letters as well as of politics
A few years ago Doctor Braga
wrote this simple sketch Of his life:
AT the age OF three he lost his

rible stepmother until 1861, when he
left his fathers house and went to
Coimbra. then the only university in
Portugal, with small sum which
he had received for q volume OF
verses he published in 1859. At
Coimbra his life was an obscure strug-
gle, for lack OF means OF existence.
He bore up in this struggle with un-
sonquerable pride.
In 1872 he presented himself as
, candidate for The professionally of
modern European literature at the
higher Lisbon classes. What a terri
