Chapter XXXIV: Epilogue: Quite Well Again

Just been elected to the Council of the Eugenic Society, and the only woman to sit on the Council of the Cremation Society of England.

And so ring down the curtain on the “Bakers’ Dozen,” and the booksellers’ and authors’ thirteen. So ends my tale—no “Spy’s” tail.

AU REVOIR!

P.S.—No woman ever wrote a letter—tradition says—without a P.S.
Above everything I am a woman, so let me hasten to add my P.S.

These pages have been corrected for press during fourteen days of
great strain.

Thousands of invitations were sent from my door between reading
the “galleys.” Thousands of letters and questions were answered
during the correction of the “page proof,” which turned up while
I was acting as Hospitality Honorary Secretary for the FIRST
INTERNATIONAL EUGENICS CONGRESS, held in London, July, 1912.

For the Inaugural Banquet I sent out to all parts of the world
about a thousand invitations, nearly five hundred of which were
accepted. Major Leonard Darwin, son of the great Darwin and nephew
of Sir Francis Galton, presided at the dinner, and Mr. Arthur J.
Balfour and the Lord Mayor (Sir Thomas Crosby) spoke. A Reception,
at which all members attending the Congress were present, followed.

Amongst those who came forward and helped me, by giving delightful
entertainments and each receiving five or six hundred guests in
their beautiful homes, were H. E. the American Ambassador, the
Duchess of Marlborough, the Lord Mayor (the first medical man to
fill that post), Mr. Robert Mond, and Major Darwin.

My part of the festivities ended by my taking a hundred of our
foreign and colonial visitors to tea on the Terrace of the House of
Commons, thanks to the generosity of ten Members of Parliament. The
Speaker kindly lent his gallery, and allowed his Private Secretary
to find seats for the whole number.

All this was most enjoyable, but it was not good for careful
proof-reading.

Mexico as I Saw It

By MRS. ALEC TWEEDIE

(_née_ HARLEY)

=Morning Post.=—“In her new volume, Mrs. Alec Tweedie has chosen fresh subjects for her bright descriptive powers. Of the glorious amphitheatre she writes like a true artist. The public will, we believe, heartily welcome this fascinating work, which contributes to our knowledge of one of the greatest men of the day, and supplies at the same time the most agreeable reading.”

=Punch.=—“She ‘saw it’ under exceedingly favourable circumstances. Armed with an introduction to the President she was welcomed with more than Mexican warmth.... A born traveller, ready when occasion compelled to put up with hardships and short commons, Mrs. Alec Tweedie took cheerfully to the private cars provided for her in the railways, to the semi-official banquets, and to life in palaces. She travelled all over Mexico with her eyes, as usual, wide open.”

=Sunday Sun= (The book of the week).—“The reading public may congratulate itself as well as Mrs. Alec Tweedie on the happy inspiration which directed her to Mexico. For the antiquarian she contributes information both new and valuable, as she had the good fortune to be in Mexico at the time of important discoveries of Aztec remains. We owe this book much gratitude, for there is a practical and informing value in its crisp, vivid pages.... It shows to a public curiously ignorant on the subject a great country.”

=Pall Mall Gazette.=—“Mrs. Alec Tweedie is famous for her spirited ‘relations of journeys’ to less get-at-able resorts. Mexico will fully sustain the reputation which she acquired with ‘Through Finland in Carts.’ There is no doubt it is just such a relation of a journey as the general reader likes. It is light, it is long, it is chatty, it is informing, and is profusely illustrated with really first-rate photographs. The grave and the gay alternate in her pages, and her touch is never ponderous. There has been no better book of travel ... for a long time.”

=Westminster Gazette.=—“That alert and experienced traveller, Mrs. Alec Tweedie, gives a lively account of recent journeying. A good deal of historical and archæological lore finds a natural place in this variegated travel-book. Her vivid description of the Caves of Cacahuamilpa justifies her rapturous comparison of these wonders of nature with the mightiest buildings of the world.”

AMERICAN PAPERS

=Philadelphia Public Ledger.=—“Mrs. Alec Tweedie is one of the most vivacious, accomplished and amiable of travellers. She writes with unflagging spirit and humour, and is never weary. As a result we have a narrative of incidents and observations from day to day, intimate as a diary, full of entertainment, portraying scenes, customs and experiences of unusual interest. Mrs. Tweedie’s progress was almost royal in the hospitality and service she received from men of every rank and position. It would be difficult among the books of travel issued during the past twelve months to find one so amusing and comprehensive as this.”

=Boston Transcript.=—“A traveller born. Nothing worth seeing or hearing escapes her. Her first experiences of life in Mexico were on a ranche, where she had abundant opportunities of studying its various phases at her leisure.”

=New York Times.=—“The very name of Mexico bears with it a mysterious breeze and charm. She is happy when she deals off-hand with what her senses bring her; the ragged ugliness of the beggar, the funeral cars, the cock and bull fights, the landscapes, and the riot of tropical verdure, the sharp contrasts of society, the flood of religious superstition, and happier still when she takes up the doings of high society.”

=Churchman.=—“The book is an _olla podrida_; social studies of the aristocracy, labourers, beggars, politicians and the Indians elbow archæological investigations, and besides these are all the adventures of a venturesome traveller, told in brisk fashion with a breezy humour, with enthusiasm for her subject, and yet with a practical common sense quite as awake to the economic possibilities of Mexico in the future as to the picturesque relics of Mexico in the past.”

Through Finland in Carts

=Saturday Review= (Books of the week).—“There is something that is almost, if not quite, fascinating about Mrs. Alec Tweedie and her manner of making a book. A monument of discursive energy. A mass of information both useful and entertaining.”

=Daily Mail.=—“Mrs. Alec Tweedie has added to our stock of entertaining books of travel in unfamiliar lands.”

=Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News= (The book of the week).—“From first to last there is not a dull page in the volume, which is admirably written, well illustrated, and full of humour. It is one of the best books of travel we have read for many a year.”

=The Speaker.=—“There are many vivid pen-and-ink sketches in these pages of peasant life, and Mrs. Tweedie shows that she possesses not only a quick eye but ready powers of expression.”

=Pall Mall Gazette.=—“She saw everything and everybody in Finland, nothing—from the squalor of the peasants’ huts to the political outlook—escaped her lively observation. Her book is full of information and entertainment.”

=Literary World.=—“A most valuable book. It is more than a book of travel, it is the best study of Finland that has yet appeared; like the Finlanders themselves, it is extremely up to date, indeed it is difficult to imagine a better-balanced book of travel.”

=Daily Telegraph.=—“A spirited story of adventure in Finland. The account given of the women of Finland is very curious and instructive.”

=Morning Post.=—“Containing information of a very varied sort imparted in a very sprightly way. Sportsmen should read what Mrs. Alec Tweedie has to say about fishing in Finland.”

=The Queen= (The book of the week).—“Mrs. Alec Tweedie has written several good books of travel, each better than the last. Finland is really an excellent book—it is about the most entertaining and instructive travel book of the year.”

“_A BOOK OF ABSORBING INTEREST._”

Hyde Park: Its History
and Romance

=The Academy.=—“In ‘Hyde Park’ Mrs. Tweedie is triumphantly encamped and any attempt to dislodge her would be quite futile. Her study of an extraordinarily interesting and attractive subject is thoroughly complete, and from first to last most delightfully done. It is a wholly delightful book, and what with the immense interest of the subject, the pleasant writing, and the number of well-chosen pictures, should have a really great success.”

=Sunday Sun= (The book of the week).—“Mrs. Alec Tweedie’s book is altogether delightful. She is frankly a gossip, and while she includes in her book all that appertains to the Park itself, she can never resist the temptation to tell a good story. No side of life escapes her attention.... In short, a great subject is worthily treated. Lovers of London and lovers of England should be grateful for this memorial of their great playground. Hyde Park may be called a picture book of history, and its history has been written with loving care and no little skill.”

=Pall Mall.=—“Mrs. Alec Tweedie is a capital stage manager of this wonderful play, bright, cheery, and always entertaining. She has saturated herself with the atmosphere of each period, and each character, good, bad, and indifferent, stands before us with wonderful reality.... To watch them is to realise how important Hyde Park is to our gregarious metropolis; and if distance intervenes and exiles you, you may still be transported thither on the magic carpet of Mrs. Tweedie’s most engrossing pages.”

=The Nation.=—“As delectable to the sociable as it is puzzling to the misanthropic, Hyde Park represents the same spirit of serious trifling and enforced idleness as in the days when it first became a pleasure ground for the High-World some three centuries ago. These are among the ghosts raised by Mrs. Alec Tweedie’s ‘Hyde Park.’ She devotes considerable space to the painful and gruesome chronicles of Tyburn, and tells an entertaining account of the evolution of the carriage.”

_BY THE SAME AUTHOR_

Behind the Footlights

TWO EDITIONS

=Morning Post.=—“It ought to have an unusually large circulation in comparison with other books which describe the inner life of the stage. Mrs. Alec Tweedie touches the moral aspect of the acting life with delicacy and reticence.... Her pictures of rehearsals are realistic. She has many delightful anecdotes.”

=Daily Express.=—“A gossiping encyclopædia of the stage. If there is anything about the stage that is not touched upon, it is because it is not worth troubling about, and there is not a dull page in the book from start to finish, and scarcely one which is not brightened by an anecdote.”

=Standard.=—“‘Behind the Footlights’ contains a greater amount of direct personal information concerning leading contemporary actors, actresses, managers, and dramatists than can be found in any number of recently published books about the theatre in England.... She must be thanked for a singularly clever and entertaining volume.”

JOHN LANE: THE BODLEY HEAD, VIGO STREET, W.

_BY THE SAME AUTHOR_

George Harley,

F.R.S.;

or,

The Life of a Harley Street Physician

By HIS DAUGHTER

=The Times.=—“The authoress is well known by her pleasant and chatty books of travel.... She has succeeded, by a judicious combination of her father’s notes with her own recollections, in producing a readable and interesting memoir.”

=Morning Post.=—“The memoir contains much interesting reading, tracing as it does the career of a distinguished man of science, who, though he had to struggle for years against almost insuperable difficulties, reached at last a high place in the professional tree and maintained his position there.”

=St. James’s Gazette.=—“Mrs. Tweedie is to be congratulated both on her subject and on the way she has manipulated it.”

A Girl’s Ride in Iceland

FOUR EDITIONS

=Morning Post.=—“This account of an autumn trip to an unhackneyed land is much better worth reading than many more pretentious volumes.... The authoress has an eye for what is worth seeing, a happy knack of graphic description, and a literary style which is commendably free from adjectival exuberance.”

=Manchester Guardian.=—“Mrs. A. Tweedie’s account of her trip is so bright and lively that the novelty of her experience is rendered additionally interesting by her manner of describing it.... The authoress interests us from first to last, and her style is altogether free from affectation of fine writing ... her book, indeed, is both instructive and amusing.”

=St. James’s Gazette.=—“... Many interesting details of the history and social life of the Icelanders are set forth in a pleasant, chatty style by the spirited and observant lady who rode 160 miles like a man.”

=Saturday Review.=—“... people intent on new fields of travel; Mrs. Tweedie’s lively account of a voyage to Iceland, and its agreeable and entirely successful results, ought to inspire adventurous ladies to follow her example.... Mrs. Tweedie describes the wonders of the land with a keen appreciation, and has not forgotten to supply many useful hints.”

⁂ This interesting contribution to Nelson literature is drawn from
the journals and correspondence of the Rev. Edmund Nelson. Rector
of Burnham Thorpe and his youngest daughter, the father and sister
of Lord Nelson. The Rector was evidently a man of broad views and
sympathies, for we find him maintaining friendly relations with his
son and daughter-in-law after their separation. What is even more
strange, he felt perfectly at liberty to go direct from the house
of Mrs. Horatio Nelson in Norfolk to that of Sir. William and Lady
Hamilton in London, where his son was staying. This book shows how
completely and without reserve the family received Lady Hamilton.

A QUEEN OF SHREDS AND PATCHES: The Life of Madame Tallien Notre Dame de Thermidor. From the last days of the French Revolution, until her death as Princess Chimay in 1835. By L. GASTINE.

⁂ Among the many queens of France, queens by right of marriage
with the reigning sovereign, queens of beauty or of intrigue, the
name of Sophie Dawes, the daughter of humble fisherfolk in the
Isle of Wight, better known as “the notorious Mme. de Feucheres,”
“The Queen of Chantilly” and “The Montespan de Saint Leu” in the
land which she chose as a suitable sphere in which to exercise her
talents for money-making and for getting on in the world, stand
forth as a proof of what a women’s will can accomplish when that
will is accompanied with an uncommon share of intelligence.

MARGARET OF FRANCE DUCHESS OF SAVOY. 1523-1574. A Biography with Photogravure Frontispiece and 16 other Illustrations and Facsimile Reproductions of Hitherto Unpublished Letters. Demy 8vo. (9 × 5¾ inches.) 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ A time when the Italians are celebrating the Jubilee of the
Italian Kingdom is perhaps no unfitting moment in which to glance
back over the annals of that royal House of Savoy which has
rendered Italian unity possible. Margaret of France may without
exaggeration be counted among the builders of modern Italy. She
married Emanuel Philibert, the founder of Savoyard greatness:
and from the day of her marriage until the day of her death she
laboured to advance the interests of her adopted land.

MADAME DE BRINVILLIERS AND HER TIMES. 1630-1676. By HUGH STOKES. With a Photogravure Frontispiece and 16 other Illustrations. Demy 8vo. (9 × 5¾ inches.) 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ The name of Marie Marguerite d’Aubray, Marquise de Brinvilliers,
is famous in the annals of crime, but the true history of her
career is little known. A woman of birth and rank, she was also a
remorseless poisoner, and her trial was one of the most sensational
episodes of the early reign of Louis XIV. The author was attracted
to this curious subject by Charles le Brun’s realistic sketch of
the unhappy Marquise as she appeared on her way to execution. This
_chef d’œuvre_ of misery and agony forms the frontispiece to the
volume, and strikes a fitting keynote to an absorbing story of
human passion and wrong-doing.

THE VICISSITUDES OF A LADY-IN-WAITING. 1735-1821. By EUGENE WELVERT. Translated from the French by LILIAN O’NEILL. With a Photogravure Frontispiece and 16 other Illustrations. Demy 8vo. (9 × 5¾ inches.) 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ The Duchesse de Narbonne-Lara was Lady-in-Waiting to Madame
Adelaide, the eldest daughter of Louis XV. Around the stately
figure of this Princess are gathered the most remarkable characters
of the days of the Old Regime, the Revolution and the fist Empire.
The great charm of the work is that it takes us over so much and
varied ground. Here, in the gay crowd of ladies and courtiers, in
the rustle of flowery silken paniers, in the clatter of high-heeled
shoes, move the figures of Louis XV., Louis XVI., Du Barri and
Marie-Antoinette. We catch picturesque glimpses of the great wits,
diplomatists and soldiers of the time, until, finally we encounter
Napoleon Bonaparte.

THE WIFE OF GENERAL BONAPARTE. By JOSEPH TURQUAN. Author of “The Love Affairs of Napoleon,” etc. Translated from the French by Miss VIOLETTE MONTAGU. With a Photogravure Frontispiece and 16 other Illustrations. Demy 8vo. (9 × 5¾ inches.) 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ Although much has been written concerning the Empress Josephine,
we know comparatively little about the _veuve_ Beauharnais and
the _citoyenne_ Bonaparte, whose inconsiderate conduct during
her husband’s absence caused him so much anguish. We are so
accustomed to consider Josephine as the innocent victim of a cold
and calculating tyrant who allowed nothing, neither human lives
nor natural affections, to stand in the way of his all-conquering
will, that this volume will come to us rather as a surprise. Modern
historians are over-fond of blaming Napoleon for having divorced
the companion of his early years; but after having read the above
work, the reader will be constrained to admire General Bonaparte’s
forbearance and will wonder how he ever came to allow her to play
the Queen at the Tuileries.

(9 × 5¾ inches.) 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ “The greatest living Englishman” was the tribute of his
Continental contemporaries to Sir. Joseph Banks. The author of his
“Life” has, with some enthusiasm, sketched the record of a man
who for a period of half a century filled a very prominent place

SIR MARTIN CONWAY’S NOTE.

Nearly half a century has passed since Mr. W. H. James Weale,
then resident at Bruges, began that long series of patient
investigations into the history of Netherlandish art which was
destined to earn so rich a harvest. When he began work Memlinc was
still called Hemling, and was fabled to have arrived at Bruges as
a wounded soldier. The van Eycks were little more than legendary
heroes. Roger Van der Weyden was little more than a name. Most of
the other great Netherlandish artists were either wholly forgotten
or named only in connection with paintings with which they had
nothing to do. Mr. Weale discovered Gerard David, and disentangled
his principal works from Memlinc’s, with which they were then
confused.
