Purple False Foxglove My most recent trip into the Gothe State Forest was a really amazing one. I found a new swampy area that isn’t even all that far from the house if I go the short way (I took the long way to get there last time). While I was out there I ran into a beautiful red shouldered hawk, discovered a large patch of tamarisk flowers that were filled with pollinators, and found several…

BALTIMORE, NOVEMBER 3, 1945. August calls my attention to something that I have hitherto overlooked: that there are few, if any, bobby-soxers among colored girls. The white ones are now among the conspicuous fauna of the country, and get a great deal of pained consideration from the national moralists. They run in age from eleven to fifteen or so, and get their name from the fact that they go barelegged and wear short socks that roll over their low shoes. Their clothing is usually of the sports variety, and they look frowsy and often dirty... That some of them, and perhaps many of them, are loose may be true, but it was also true of their grandmothers in my youth. I was seduced at fourteen by a girl of my own age, and she had thrown off the pall of virginity before I tackled her. This girl renounced fornication soon afterward, settled down to rectitude, married well, and at last accounts was a much respected grandmother. Such experiences in early youth probably do no harm: indeed, Havelock Ellis once argued that they were most likely beneficial.

Aug 7 [1853]. Sunday. PM – To Fair Haven Hill via Hubbard’s Grove. The krigia has bloomed again. The purple gerardia now fairly out... Elder-berries begin to be ripe, bending their stems... [...] I think that within a week I have heard the alder cricket, – a clearer and shriller sound from the leaves in low grounds, a clear shrilling out of a cool moist shade, an autumnal sound. The year is in the grasp of the crickets, and they are hurling it round swiftly on its axle. Some wasps... are building a nest in my room, of mud, these days, buzzing loudly while at work, but at no other time... How much of spring there is brought back in a young bluebird’s plaintive peep!

❚...In the 1970s, Morgan stopped using the byline "Sanche de Gramont". He became an American citizen in 1977, renouncing his titles of nobility. The name he adopted as a U.S. citizen, "Ted Morgan", is an anagram of "de Gramont". The new name was a conscious attempt to discard his aristocratic French past. He had settled on a "name that conformed with the language and cultural norms of American society, a name that telephone operators and desk clerks could hear without flinching" (On Becoming American, 1978). Morgan was featured in the CBS news program 60 Minutes in 1978. The segment explored Morgan's reasons for embracing American culture and showed him eating dinner with his family in a fast food restaurant.
