Cinq</persName></byline></div> <div><p>The Group of Five is a Paris-based collective consisting of <persName key="Martine Aballéa" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q25873672">Martine Aballea</persName>, <persName key="Judy Blum Reddy" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q108526436">Judy Blum</persName>, <persName key="Croiset, Nicole 1950-...." ref="http://viaf.org/viaf/229710280">Nicole Croiset</persName>, <persName>Mimi</persName>, and <persName key="Nil Yalter" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q19502275">Nil Yalter</persName>, who include among their skills video, painting, sculpture, drawing, and poetry; and among their nationalities French, Turkish, Canadian, American. This work on La Roquette began when Judy and Mimi met through their children at a day-care center. Judy mentioned her collaboration with Nil on the theme of living conditions in each of Paris' 20 arrondissements, for which the prison had been suggested to represent the 11th administrative arrondissement. Mimi, it turned out, had been detained there, and she offered an elaboration of her experiences. Martine, whose writing is based on her own memories and dreams, also joined the project, while Nil offered her use of video to universalize the narrative elements, in collaboration with Nicole, who concentrated on the esthetic/sociological aspects of the research. The result is a visual representation of the prison and of the personal experiences of many women, centered around the group's increasing consciousness of the meaning of Mimi's story: "Bonds of friendship, constantly confirmed, played the most cohesive role on the level of the work itself, resulting in the combination of apparently disparate means connected to each other by mutual understanding within the group." The following narrative accompanies a videotape from which most of the images are taken.</p> <p>The other women were mostly in the prison for bad checks, prostitution, or, like me, for robbery. There were also some murderers; I knew one in my workshop. Another had been accused of stealing a painting. The first days we asked each other, but afterwards we didn’t really say "What are you doing here?" except to our best friends. </p> <p> These women came from all classes. In general, relations between inmates were pretty good. There were a lot of lesbians; the nuns' attitudes toward them was to turn a blind eye. They couldn't not have known about it. The girls hid it a little—and even a lot—but it was too obvious. As for me, I was not a lesbian, but I nevertheless flirted here and there to pass the time. It could have certain advantages: when you didn't have any money, your friends could buy things at the canteen for you. Or, at one time, I went out with an English girl who was the favorite of a nun who didn't like me, and from that day on, that nun was very nice to me, and I got certain favors I shouldn't have had. </p> <p> But still there were lots of fights, sometimes for no reason at all, just because the girls felt like fighting. Sometimes it was a question of class. Some girls felt superior to others: it wasn't a question of money, but of intellect. So sometimes one girl would insult another, or feel insulted, and there would be a fight. We were a whole gang; some had to be in charge. And if you knew how to fight, you were respected. There was nothing you could do about it.</p> <p> Sometimes fights started over cigarettes. For example, I got into a fight with a girl over that. Every Wednesday we had the right to buy four packs of cigarettes at the canteen. This girl didn't smoke, so, with my money, I had bought her something she needed, and she, with her money, was going to buy me four more packs, which would have made eight for the week. She bought me the cigarettes, but another girl told her to give them to her. She was very weak and she didn't dare refuse. That night I waited for her in her cell and I beat her up. The week after that she bought me cigarettes, and she didn't even ask me for money. Afterwards—it's stupid, she was a coward—she would pick up butts in the yard for me, when I really didn't expect that from her. When the other girls saw that, they all turned against her. When I saw that, I stood up for her, because I don't like to take sides. I'd hit her a little, but I didn't have a grudge against her.</p> <p> Another time there was a fight in the mess hall, in front of the nun. There was blood on the floor: one girl had had a nosebleed, and the other had been hurt elsewhere. I was drawing; with my finger I picked up some drops of blood and put them on my drawing. </p> <p> But there was also a feeling of solidarity among the inmates. One time, for example, a girl had been punished and locked up in the mess hall toilets. I didn't know what she had done, I don't even know if she had really done anything; in any case it was totally unjust to lock her up like that. So, with my friend, I climbed onto the ledge over the mess hall door and we said that we would stay there until they let this girl out. Normally we should have done two weeks in the cooler for that, but we didn't get anything. We would have done it anyway because it was unjust.</p> <p>Or one day a girl gave me a little piece of candle about two inches long. We were forbidden to have candles, but there were a lot of things like that that went around the prison. I don't know how she got it; that was the sort of question you didn’t ask. She gave it to me because she knew that I liked to read.</p> <p>We also managed to pass notes from cell to cell by what we called the "yoyo" system. You tied the note to a piece of string and you put it through the window. We did that for certain girls who were in the cooler when we were in the yard. We would send them a note <pb facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_040.jpg" n="38"/> from their best friends or something like that.</p> <p>As for the nuns, apart from some who were especially mean, they were mostly indifferent. But they had, of course, their favorites. It was a question of personality: they liked the docile inmates. In the beginning they didn't like me because I was stubborn and rude to them. Afterwards, I sometimes behaved better. But in any case, being with the English girl, I could do things that were forbidden and not get punished. Sometimes, for example, I would go into the yard to pick up butts that the richer girls had left; we weren't allowed to do that other than at recess. Or I tried doing all kinds of things so I could go to the cooler, because l had a friend who sang in church and in the cooler there was a lot of echo. But despite all I did I never got sent, while some girls did nothing at all and got sent right away.</p> <p>Down in the cooler you were isolated from everybody. You got no mail or visits. You never left your cell, except once a day when you had a walk, alone, in the yard. You only had one meal a day which was brought to you in your cell.</p> <p>Generally speaking, it took a certain amount of time to make friends. I didn't have this problem because there were already two people there whom I knew when I arrived. But for the others who had no soap, no handkerchiefs (the prison gave you nothing, not even sanitary napkins; all they gave me when I came in was a rag to wash myself with), if they weren't resourceful, if they didn't get some friends to help them, they couldn't make it. You had to work about ten days before having enough money to buy things at the canteen.</p> <p>The money that you made working, making key rings, was only just enough to buy cigarettes. You were paid 80 centimes (15 cents) for one hundred key rings, about a day's work. Those who worked really fast managed to make two hundred. I started working the second day after my arrival, but I lost the tool I had been given. I got yelled at by the nun, and I saw that it was badly paid, so I stopped. Instead, I spent my days reading. I could do this because I was not sentenced yet, while those who were had to work. The catalogue from the library was passed in the workshop and we had the right to two books a week; I would ask some girls who didn't read to order some for me. I read everything—<persName key="Pearl S. Buck" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q80900">Pearl Buck</persName>, books on explorations. I also spent a lot of time drawing, and sometimes I would go out. My seat was at the end of the workshop, near the door, so it was easy for me to go out in the yard when the nun wasn't looking.</p> <p>The money that you had on you on entering the prison was kept; you could only use it in the canteen. Some inmates received money orders; many of them, actually, got money. As for me, my brother <pb facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_041.jpg" n="39"/>sent me a hundred francs (20 dollars) and a little money that I had left in a book at my mother's. But for those who had no money at all, the only way to get any was to work.</p> <p>At the canteen you could buy pencils, letter paper, envelopes, toilet articles, or wool. Some knitted; it was winter and it was necessary if you didn't have any clothes. You could also buy french fries, puddings and prepared dishes that you could have on Sundays. We couldn't have newspapers, but we could buy magazines like <title key="Jours de France" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q3187102"><emph>Jours de France</emph></title>.</p> <p>About these magazines—we bought them for the recipes that were in them. Often there were pictures with the recipe, so we would tear them from the magazine and eat them. For example, if you liked salad, you would eat pictures of salad. We also ate pictures of chicken, cakes, or things like that.</p> <p>At the meals we got mostly starchy food—potatoes, beans, or cauliflower; there was also bread. They gave us meat, but it was very tough. In fact we couldn't cut it with the blunt children's knives that we bought at the canteen. We ate it with our hands, tearing it with our teeth. At the end of the meal—which had been served by inmates—we did our own dishes. We had brought our bowls and our cutlery to the mess hall in the cardboard boxes that we took everywhere with us, and we went in little groups to wash them with cold water. To wipe them, l used the rag they had given me when I came in...</p> <p>About twice a week we could bring back up to the cells the rice pudding we had had for dessert at supper. I loved this and often exchanged two cigarettes for a bowl. We went up two by two, and silently. If we talked, the nun made us stop until we were silent again. Between the time we went up and the time we went to bed there was about half an hour, when we had the right to stay near the stove and toast pieces of bread. We talked, or we sang; I had a friend who sang very well, and we gathered around her. She sang some of <persName>Adamo</persName>'s songs, but also some she had written herself, like one about the nuns to the tune of <title key="De profundis morpionibus" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q3020467"><emph>Morpionibus</emph></title>. She also sang in church; she had spent years in a religious boarding school and she knew the whole mass in Latin...It was forbidden to sing in the cells once the doors were closed, but we did it anyway. We all sang together. The nuns couldn't put us all in the cooler; they contented themselves with yelling into the void.</p> <p>On our beds we had the right to three blankets—and no more—and two sheets. In summer it might be enough, but in December I found another blanket when one of the girls in my cell left, but it was <pb facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_042.jpg" n="40"/>taken away in a search. The heat was provided by a stove in the hall; there was one stove for forty cells. One girl in my cell had accumulated several cardboard boxes; for a while she used them as storage space. Then one night when all the doors had been locked and the lights turned out, she set fire to her boxes to get warm. A nun realized this and came to ask what was going on. We both pretended to sleep, but in the end I lifted my head and told the nun that I didn't know anything, that I hadn't seen anything, and that I couldn't tell her anything else.</p> <p>It wouldn't stick: I was all alone with the other girl and I was saying that I hadn't seen anything. The next day the girl I was friends with said that I couldn't have done it. She knew me and she knew that I didn't have bizarre ideas like that. The other girl did two weeks in the cooler, but I could have gone too because I hadn't said anything....</p> <p>Every week there was a shower session. It was in cubicles that didn't close, and there were three of us in each cubicle. The water ran sometimes too hot, sometimes too cold. When it stopped, everyone had to be through, and even if your head was full of soap, there was nothing you could do about it. You had to find a way to rinse yourself with cold water afterwards; sometimes when you finally got a chance to do it, your head was already half dry.</p> <p>As for clothes, pants were forbidden. Men were banished from our environment and the nuns would say "Stop wriggling!" when we saw workers from Fresnes (men's prison). We weren't supposed to look at them. We had to wear dresses or skirts. When I arrived, I was wearing pants, so to replace it they gave me a burlap dress. In the beginning I didn't have any other clothes; I wore it night and day. I couldn't wash it and until I got other clothes, my dress stayed dirty....One girl had made herself a skirt from a blanket, so she went to the cooler. It was a beautiful skirt and it was a long time before they realized what she had done. I don't know where she found the needle and thread; they were among the things that circulated....The sheets and rags which had been given to us were washed in the linen room. The linen maids, like those who served the meals, were inmates who had been there a long time and who had won the trust of the nuns. The sheets were changed about once a month; it was far from ideal when there were lice.</p> <p>During my stay there was an epidemic of lice. The nuns told us to go to the kitchen and ask for vinegar, and we put it on our heads. When it was dry we put on some powder, and then a scarf; we stayed like that for three days. If you had lice it was considered bad and no one approached you any more. One of the nuns made fun of me; she said, "If you washed every day..." or something like that. I told her that she had surely had them before me. It was the first time in my life that I had them, so....</p> <p>The cells were searched pretty often, sometimes when we were there, but mostly during the day when we were in the workshop. The nuns looked for knives and candles we had gotten by exchange, or other things we weren't allowed to have. They also looked for mail between inmates; we had the right to write letters to each other, but not love letters. Once one of the nuns—a young one who must have been under thirty—wrote to one of my friends. She told her that she liked her and that she would like to have a closer relationship with her. The letter was found and the nun in question was expelled. This sort of thing happened from time to time.</p> <p>Everything we received from the outside was also searched. We received our packages all cut up and opened. All our letters were read, those that we got as well as those we sent. Some had practically nothing in them, but they couldn't go through because they were too long. People wrote to us with the smallest writing possible because one page, written very small, went through, but 2 pages, written in large letters, didn't. As for the letters that we wrote, everything concerning prison life, the nuns, or what we ate, was censored. We could talk about the books we had read, and a minimum about what we did, but that was all. In general, what went through or not depended on the person who read the mail. Some letters that shouldn't have gone through went anyway, and vice versa.</p> <p>We were also searched when we left the prison. You couldn't take out anything that might be a souvenir. One of my friends, for example, had made a drawing of a little girl taking water in her hand to offer a doe; they didn't let her take her drawing out. In these searches you couldn't really hide anything, and what was least likely to be found was what wasn't hidden. In the end they looked more often into the girls' vaginas to see if they had hidden letters than in the luggage. As for me, I had certain drawings and papers which normally I wouldn't have been allowed to take out. I just left them with my things and they weren't even seen.</p> <p>It was on the eve of my departure that they told me that I was coming out. Until then I had no idea how long they were going to keep me. I could have gone out on probation before, but only on condition that they tell my mother. I preferred that they didn’t. Once out, I didn’t have the right to write to my inmate friends who stayed. </p><p>Sundays were different from other days. In the morning, some went to church and the others stayed locked up in their cells, but we could go into our friends' cells. Afterwards we did the cleaning up.</p> <pb facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_043.jpg" n="41"/> <p>That day we didn't work, and we could sit where we liked in the workshop-mess hall. The nuns put the radio on, but they turned it off as soon as the news came on. They didn't let us know what was going on in the outside world. To pass the time we played games. For instance, we played truth games. We asked questions about incidents that had happened a few days before and about which we hadn't managed to find out the truth. The girls were generally honest; you couldn't lie in that game, otherwise you didn't play. But the biggest pastime was cards—Tarot, Belote. Some of them were played with real cards that some girls had managed to smuggle in. The others had been made with empty packs of Gitanes on which we had drawn.</p> <p>Some girls tattooed themselves. They would take ink from ball point pens and mix it with cigarette ash. This way they managed to make an ink which was pretty indelible—blue-black. Then they took two needles, one projecting in front of the other, and put a drop of ink between them. Then, with the projecting needle they made the drop slip into the hole. This made a point; they made as many points as they wanted. They made snakes, hearts, names, but mostly just three points, which means "Death to the Pigs," or five points "Alone Between Four Walls." It was the emblem of prison.</p> <p>We wrote all over ourselves with pens, and there were ways of making up your face. With ashes from the stove in the hall and water we could make mascara. There were black felt pens that we could use as eyeliner, but it was hard to take off and we usually did it with shoe polish that we got at the canteen. We mostly made our eyes up, but some girls put brown pencil around their lips.</p> <p>Some girls reacted badly to prison life, but we tried to help them, and they managed to make friends, to find people who helped them overcome their distress. I wouldn't leave a poor girl by herself who arrived here and who looked completely lost. I went to see her, I talked to her. Of course there were those who had their husbands and their children outside; for them it was harder. I was told that once a girl hanged herself. Sometimes there were also attempts at escape; I was told that one inmate hid herself in a garbage can, but she didn't have time to get out and was killed inside the garbage truck.</p> <p>At Christmas the Salvation Army came. We got together in the mess hall and listened to them sing Christmas carols. These women were very nice. They gave each of us a towel, a handkerchief, and a pack of candy. We had a lot of fun because we weren't used to seeing this sort of woman. Everybody was laughing, but they were well received by the inmates. In the end we thought it was really nice of them to trouble themselves for us. I think a lot of the girls were touched.</p> <p>For the meal, we put all the tables together to be the most together possible. Those who had saved a little money bought pastries, but almost everything was shared. I, for example, didn't have any money, but I had a little of everything like everybody else. On the part of the prison, there was nothing, except that we didn't work that day and we could go to midnight mass. A lot of people were depressed that day; all this reminded us of our families and of all the things we were trying to forget. It was nice, this party, but actually it was painful. The monotony of the other days was better. We didn't really give each other presents. We didn't have the possibility of giving anything, except cigarettes. The girl I was going out with gave me some cigarettes. </p></div> </body> </text> </TEI>

But because they say half a loafe is better then no bread, I will take upon me to tell you what is saide, though I cannot advertise you what is don. Our Christmas is now come to an end, without the least shew of any alteration in court or elswhere, and to morrow <persName key="James VI and I" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q79972">the King</persName> removes toward <placeName key="Royston" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q19804">Roiston</placeName>: the counsaile have dealt with him to name new officers specially secretaries, or one at least, whomsoever he shold please, for that the state of affaires requires yt, and suffers much for the want of a sufficient man that might ease his Majestie in some part of the care and paines of that place. The King tooke theyre advise in goode part, and doth acknowl¬ edge as much as they say, with promise that he will thincke upon yt, and resolve in goode time, so that we are now come to our dischauses again, and the cheife candidati as forward in theyre hopes as at any time before: the King is thought to have no great mind of himself to <persName key="Henry Neville" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q2775812">Sir H.

Yt is verely held, and many signes there be of yt, that the Kings inclination holdes firm for <persName key="Ralph Winwood" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q7288287">our frend</persName> <note>Sir Ralph Winwood</note> at <placeName key="The Hague" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q36600">the Haghe</placeName>, and till I see sombody els in possession I cannot beleve otherwise, for yf words and premises be ought worth, and hissing of the hand (instead of clapping) be any part of assurance to make up a bargain, he is in goode case, and cannot misse. But this is a secret and must be sealed up to yourself. The world is of opinion that the <persName key="Robert Carr, 1st Earl of Somerset" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q336096">Lord of Rochester</persName> <note>Robert Carr, Viscount Rochester</note> is slowe every way as well as for himself as his frends, els wold he ere this have compassed and concluded for the maine place <note>The office of Lord Treasurer</note> he shoots at; but perhaps he undertakes too much, and hath too many yrons in the fire at once.

We heare that these late great windes and raines have overthrowne Dover peere, and quite defaced those workes and fortifications against the sea, wherin there hath ben bestowed so much time and cost. Here is a gentleman come from the Duke of Guise, and another from the Prince Counti to condole for the Princes death. His houshold is broken up, and the inventarie of his goods brought in far beyond his debts: the account of his yearly revenew riseth to 57000 li. I have heard an uncertain report that Sir Mathew Carie is like to loose and be cousened of eight or nine thousand pound in a purchase of one Sir William Bond in whose honestie and credit he put great confidence, but I hope yt cannot fall out altogether so yll, beeing discovered so soone, and he so well frended in the court of conscience. Touching that you Wrote of your owne particuler, I have not imparted yt to any body, saving in a word or two to your father Savile <note>Sir Henry Savile, the stepfather of Lady Carleton</note> as I wrote you in my last. So with all due remembrance to my goode Lady I commend you to the protection of the Almighty. From London this 7th of January 1612.</p> <l>Your Lordships to command</l> <l>JOHN CHAMBERLAIN.</l> <p>To the right honorable Sir Dudley Carleton Knight Ambassador for his Majestie to the State of Venice.</p> </div> <div> <head>159. TO SIR RALPH WINWOOD.</head> <l>[Winwood Papers, vol. viii.]</l> <l>[London, January 9, 1613.</l> <p>My very goode Lord: The holydayes are come and gon and nothing yet don of that which was so duly expected, I meane the translating and creating of new officers. The King was moved by the counsaile in this matter, specially for secretaries, for that the state of affaires required yt, and suffered much for the want of a sufficient man that might ease and help to disburthen his Majestie in the care and paines of that place, wherfore they besought him to provide and name whomsoever he pleased: he tooke theyre advise in goode part and promised to resolve in goode time, and further that when he did yt he would perfect yt: which later clause I take for bonum omen, and applie yt to the person I wish best to. The world conceves the King hath no great inclination of himself to Sir H. N. <note>Cf Letter 158</note> so that yf he prevaile yt must be as yt were invita Minerva, and by the importunitie of his great patron: and then to counterpoise the balance and please the counterpart Sir Tho: Lakes may be admitted, or rather (as the voyce goes now) Sir Thomas Edmunds, who besides his owne frends at home hath the Duke of Buillon an earnest solicitor in his behalfe. At the solemnising of the fiancialles on St. Johns day Sir Tho Lakes frends made account he had won ground, and outstept his competitors in performed the part of a principall secretarie, when he did praeire conceptis verbis, and repeat the wordes of the contract: which were so badly translated and worse pronounced that yt moved an unseasonable laughter as well in the contractors as the assistants, till the archbishop of Caunterburie very gravely interposing himself used these very wordes The God of Abraham, Isaake and Jacob blesse these nuptialls, and make them prosperous to these kingdomes and to his church. You are excedingly beholden to that prelate for his goode word and opinion, which he hath not spared to make knowne upon divers occasions. The Prince Palatin (for so he is now stiled and since this contract is usually prayed for in the church among the Kinges children) was very royall in his presents this newyearstide, geving to the Lord and Lady Harrington <note>John, first Lord Harington of Exton, and Anne Lady Harington, daughter of Sir Robert Kelway, had had the charge of the Princess Elizabeth since 1603.</note> in golden and guilt plate to the value of 2000 li, to theyre servants 400 li to all the women about the Lady Elizabeth 100 li a piece, and a medaglia with his picture: to her waiters as much, and to her cheife gentleman usher a chaine of 150 li, to Mistris Dudley <note>Anne Sutton, daughter of Edward Sutton, ninth Lord Dudley, accompanied Elizabeth, the Electress Palatine, when she left England.</note> a chaine of perle and diamonds of 500 li, to the Prince a rapier and payre of spurres set with diamonds, to the King a battle of one entire agat containing two quarts estemed a very rare and rich jewell, to the Quene a very fayre cup of Agat and a jewell: and lastly to his mistris, a rich chaine of diamonds, a tire for her head all of diamonds, two very rich pendent diamonds for her eares, and above all two perles, for bignes, fashion and bewtie es temed the rarest that are to be found in Christendome: insomuch that the jewells bestowed only on her are valued by men of skill above 3500 li, He was purposed to shew the like bountie towards the King and Quenes servants and officers, but the King directly forbad yt. The Quene is noted to have geven no great grace nor favor to this match, and there is doubt will do lesse hereafter, for that upon these frownes Schomberg <note>Hans Meinhard von Schomberg or Schönberg.</note> (that is cheife about him) is saide to have geven out that his master is a better man then the king of Denmarke and that he is to take place of him in the empire, at leastwise of a greater king then he the king of Boheme. The mariage is set downe for Shrovesonday, against which time yt is saide the Lords and Ladies about the court have appointed a maske upon theyre owne charge, but I heare there is order geven for 1500 li to provide one upon the Kings cost and 1000 li for fireworkes. The ynnes of court likewise are dealt with for two maskes against that time, and meane to furnish themselves for the service. The Prince Palatin makes account to depart homeward some fifteen dayes after his mariage, and the Lady is to follow toward Whitsontide, conducted by fowre earles, eight Barons and I know not how many knights. The old Lord Admirall <note>Charles Howard, Earl of Nottingham.</note> meanes to make yt his last service to wafte her over. The King removes this day toward Roiston, where the Lord of Rochester <note>Robert Carr, Viscount Rochester.</note> shall have more leysure and commoditie to negotiat this busines <note>The appointment of a Principal Secretary and a Lord Treasurer.</note> that intertaines every mans thoughts, for he pretends that the multiplicitie of other affaires hindred him from moving yt whiles the King was here: yet I will not forbeare to tell you that many are of opinion that he is and wilbe content to kepe yt in his owne hands. Indeed he is very slowe of dispatch, and hath at this time many yrons in the fire as well for himself as his frends, for besides the maine place he shoots at, he is now about the reversion of the Lord Darcies <note>Cf. Letter 158.</note> lands, which for want of heyres males are like to return to the crowne, according to the first graunt. A day or two before Christ- mas the King himself gave a hearing to a controversie twixt the farmers of the customes and Sir John Swinerton now Lord Mayor, who accused them of defrauding the King yearly of 70000 li but when yt came to proofe yt could not be made goode, so that they went away acquitted, and he not much condemned for seeking the Kings benefit. We have here dayly many banckrouts and as many protections which do marvay- lously hinder all manner of commerce. The last weeke here came an ambassador from Lorrain to condole the Princes death, and some say to propound I know not what match. He was a very proper man, sonne (as is saide) to the Cardinall of Guise that was strangled at Blois, and in great favor or (as they terme him) the Lerma of the Duke of Lorrain. Here is likewise a gentleman from the Duke of Guise, and another from the Prince Conti for the same effect. The late princes Houshold brake up the last of December, and his servants sent to seeke theyre fortune. The inventarie of his moveables doth far exceed his debts, and the account of his yearly revenwes riseth to 57000 li. The Countesse of Oxford <note>Elizabeth, widow of Edward de Vere, seventeenth Earl of Oxford.</note> is dead of this new disease, and left her sonne <note>Henry de Vere, eighteenth Earl of Oxford.</note> toward 1500 li land, and all her jewells and stuffe on condition he pay her legacies which rise to 2000 li: and bestowe 500 li on a tombe for his father and her. Yt may be you have heard that Sir George Farmor <note>Sir George Fermor of Easton Neston, Northamptonshire.</note> died above a moneth since, as likewise Sir John Morris <note>Sir John Morris of Fyfield, Berkshire.</note> of Berkshire who left Sir Henry Neville and Sir William Dowier his executors, but his daughter the Lady Fenton <note>His daughter Elizabeth, widow of Sir Edward Norris, a distant cousin, married in 1604 Thomas Erskine, in 1606 created Viscount Fenton</note> hath put herself in possession and meanes to carrie yt away by strong hand. The Lady Webbe <note>Cf. Letter 158.</note> (Sir Rowland Lyttons daughter) a very proper young gentlewoman died here in towne this Christmas of the small pockes. The Lord Evers <note>Ralph, third Lord Eure or Evers, married Elizabeth, daughter of Sir John Spencer of Althorp, and widow of George Carey, second Lord Hunsdon.</note> is newly maried to the Lady Hunsdon Sir Richard Spensers sister. There is a quarrell fallen out twixt Edward Sackville <note>Son of Robert, second Earl of Dorset. In 1624, upon the death of his brother Richard, third Earl, he succeeded to the title.</note> sonne to the last earle of Dorset, and the Lord Brus or Kinlos <note>Edward, second Lord Bruce of Kinloss</note>, which was to be determined beyond sea. Sackvile got over, but the Lord Brus was stayed at Dover; where we heare these late winds and tempests have don great harme, and in a manner ruined and defaced the peere or haven. I grow now doubtfull of Sir Thomas Bodieys <note>Sir Thomas Bodley was the stepfather of Lady Winwood</note> recoverie, and though I have not much misliked him, and thought yt was but a lingering indisposition that had many intervalla, and shewes of reviving, and beleve he hath had what help phisicke, goode order, attendance, and all a goode hart could affoord, and yet me thincks of late he droupes and decayes visiblie, though he will not seeme to yeeld to yt. I meet your brother Potman <note>Matthew Pottman, whose wife was Lady Winwood's sister. Cf. Letter 151.</note> there much, who hath so many goode wordes and assured promises from him, that he is loth to have him moved, least he shold picke a quarrell and find fault that he is mistrusted. There was a plot to have had him urged to the point by Mathew Small, but upon these and the like considerations, yt was let alone: for my part I am not of opinion that he will do any great matter for him, but there is no meanes to mend yt, for he is very wilfull, and growne exceding testie and waiward upon every trifle and light occasion, so that (as the case stands) a man may soone do hurt in seeking to do goode. So with the remembrance of my best service to my goode Lady I commend you and all yours to the protection of the Almighty. From London this 9th of January 1612.</p> <l>Your Lordships to command</l> <l>JOHN CHAMBERLAIN.</l> <p>To the right honorable Sir Rafe Winwod Knight Lord Ambassador for his Majestie to the States of the United Provinces at the Haghe.</p> </div> <div> <head>160. TO SIR DUDLEY CARLETON.</head> <l>[S. P. Dom., Jac. I, lxxii, 13.]</l> <l>[London, January 14, 1613.]</l> <p>My very goode Lord: I doubt all is not well with Master Waake <note>Isaac Wake, Carleton’s secretary who was then in England.</note> that we heare not of him. He made account to be away but eight or ten dayes at most, and yt is now fifteen since he went; yt may be the fowle weather hindered his progresse and prolongs his return, for otherwise he is sedulous enough in any thing he undertakes, and fit to follow busines, yf he were not of too much note, or (as you know who turned him) troppo conspicuo: which may be some cause of those far fet discourses about your affaires, though they were broached before he came: mary (as I understand) they are since growne more ordinarie. I imparted to Signor Biondi <note>Giovanni Francesco Biondi (knighted, 1622), whom Sir Henry Wotton in 1609 had sent from Venice to England to lay before James I Sarpi's plan for a union of the anti-papal powers. He was pensioned by James and in 1612 was in Turin with Wotton. Twenty-one letters to Carleton, between October 9, 1612, and May 12, 1618, are in State Papers Domestic.</note> what you wrote touching the Venetian ambassador and how kindly you tooke his relation. He accepted the charge very willingly, or any other service you shold impose upon him, with much demonstration of all dutie and thanckfulnes for your former favors: but he told me that Signor Fuscarini <note>Antonio Foscarini, the Venetian ambassador.</note> was somewhat distasted that your secretarie had not ben with him, and that for his part he had wisht him at his first comming not to neglect him: Sir Walter Cope likewise at my last beeing with him spake to the same purpose, so that at his returne I will put him in mind of yt, yf yt be not now too late. Biondi told me that he hath gotten a graunt of his pension for 100 li a yeare by his owne industrie, for going to an audience with the Venetian ambassador, he sollicited his cause himself and procured a patent from the Kinges owne month, for that he saw the Cavaliere Wotton <note>Sir Henry Wotton.</note> had so much busines of his owne that he could not intend yt. Your Italian frier <note>Cf. Letters 141, 143, 146.</note> was with me this other day, with a long discontented discourse for want of monie, and that he was somtimes faire to make his owne bed and sweep his chamber, things he was never put to in the place whence he came. I advised him the best I could to patience, and told him that seeing he was well provided for foode and raiment, he must fashion himself to indure somwhat per amor di Christo: yt seemes his companion Giovanni is no better pleased in the North, for he wrote lately to him that his patron the Archbishop was strettissimo di danari, and that they lived in no cities nor townes but in villa, and therupon subscribed his name Johannes in deserto. The fowle weather kept the King here till Monday, when the ayre began to alter, and hath continued ever since very faire. He is gon to Roiston and Newmarket, and makes account not to returne till Candlemas or after: he tooke up a quarrell before he went twixt Edward Sackevile <note>Cf. Letter 159.</note> sonne to the last earle of Dorset and the Lord Brus or Kinlos: yt was to be determined beyond sea, and Sackvile was gotten over, but Brus was stayed at the sea side. Garter king at armes <note>William Segar (knighted, 1616).</note> is gon into Holland, and is in commission with Sir Rate Winwod to deliver the order <note>Of the Garter. Cf. Letter 155.</note> to Count Maurice, and per¬ forme the ceremonies, which when they are finished, yf we heare not of Sir Rafe against the wedding <note>Of the Princess Elizabeth and the Elector Palatine.</note>, I will geve over looking after him. Sir Richard Morrison <note>Sir Richard Moryson, son of Thomas Moryson of Cadeby, Lincolnshire.</note> hath concluded (as I heare) with the Lord Davers <note>Henry Lord Danvers of Dauntsey, Lord President of Munster, 1607-1615.</note> for his place in Ireland of President of Mounster and geves him 3000 li. Here is a proclamation comming out this day against pocket dagges <note>12 Pistols. (S. T. C., 8481.)</note>, which begin to grow in use, and may many wayes prove daungerous. There is speach likewise (upon great suspicions) of disarming the papists. So with all due remembrance to my Lady I commend you to the protection of the Almighty. From London this 14th of January 1612.</p> <l>Your Lordships to command</l> <l>JOHN CHAMBERLAIN.</l> <l>To the right honorable Sir Dudley Carleton knight Lord Ambassador</l> <l>for his Majestie to the State of Venice.</l> </div> <div> <head>161. TO SIR DUDLEY CARLETON.</head> <l>[S. P. Dom., Jac. I, lxxii, 19.]</l> <l>[London, January 28, 1613.</l> <p>My very goode Lord: according to your direction, in your last of the old yeare, I have caused Signor Biondies <note>Giovanni Francesco Biondi.</note> packet to be delivered, and went my self with the other letters to the master of the wardes <note>Sir Walter Cope.</note>, who upon the reading of them told me he was very willing to be rid of those papers you write of <note>Carleton's letters to Robert Cecil, first Earl of Salisbury, who died in 1612.</note>, and that he had divers times bethought himself how he might safety convay them to you. I told him the readier and safer way were to burne them, which course he allowed of, and saide I shold presently see him make a sacrifice of them: and so he went to seeke them, but returning after a reasonable time, told me he could not find the key of his cabinet where he had layde them up: mary he willed me tell you that they were in safe custodie, and that he wold be as carefull of them as of any thing that concerned himself: I aunswered that I wold attend him some other time, when he might more readilie light upon them: then he caried me up to see his daughter <note>Isobel, wife of Sir Henry Rich.</note> that came to towne but the night before and layes out her great bellie as handsomly as the best. He made me a long relation of the great cause now before him twixt the Lady Lakes <note>Mary, daughter of Sir William Ryder, and wife of Sir Thomas Lake.</note> and her sister the Lady Caesar <note>Alice, daughter of Charles Green of Manchester, widow of John Dent of London, and wife of Sir Julius Caesar, Chancellor of the Exchequer.</note>, wherin he shall have much ado to carrie himself so even between wind and water, that he displease not Sir Thomas or Master Chauncellor. We heare the King is still at Newmarket somewhat troubled with an humor in his great toe that must not yet be christned or called the gowt. Presently upon his going hence, the counsaile tooke theyre severall wayes, and gave themselves some libertie of recreation for a whole weeke, but are now as close at yt again as ever, and indeed complaine that matters find not that redy dispatch that were to be wished, for want of assistance in some secret busines, so that no doubt they will importune the King at his return to resolve upon sombody <note>To appoint a Principal Secretary,</note>: for though his Majestie at first tooke delight to shew his readines and abilitie in those causes, yet that vigor begins to relent, and he must dayly more and more intend his owne health and quiet. And now in the nicke to crosse and hinder that goode we expected, there is a great breach fallen out twixt Sir Henry Nevill and the Vicount Fenton about the executorship of Sir John Norris <note>Cf. Letter 159.</note>, wherin the vicount as yt were proclaimes hostilitie, and is gon with open mouth to complain of him to the King: though yf that be true that is constantly reported, his Lady hath don all the wrong, as well in beating, kicking and reviling her mother in law <note>Margaret, daughter of George, fourth Lord Home, and mother of Thomas Erskine, Viscount Fenton.</note>, (whom she will vouchsafe no other name but the Lady Margerie) and mewing her up in a chamber like a hawke in her owne house, with other indignities, (wherby the old epithet of injusta noverca is now more properly transferred upon the danghter in law) as in divers other actions and courses of violence and oppression. Wheras for ought I can heare Sir H. N. hath only taken the way of law and justice, and is to reape no greater benefit then only to discharge the trust reposed in him: but as I saide yt falles out unhappilie both in regard of the person (such a favorite and a counsaillor) and of the time. Master Waake <note>Isaac Wake.</note> cannot yet procure his dispatch so that he must of necessitie stay the Kings comming and perhaps the mariage, wherin Sir Henry Savile is fully of my minde and sayes by that time he shall see quel pli les choses prendront. The world hath still a goode opinion of our frend <note>Sir Ralph Winwood, ambassador at The Hague.</note> at the Haghe, and great briguing <note>Intriguing, contending.</note> ther is for his place, (as I heare,) both by Sir Dudley Diggs and Master Nanton <note>Robert Naunton.</note> but specially by Colonell Ogle <note>Sir John Ogle.</note> who offers therupon to resigne his regiment to Sir Arthur Wilmot a speciall follower and favorite of my Lord of Rochesters <note>Robert Carr, Viscount Rochester.</note>. Sir Thomas Glover is arrived <note>From Constantinople.</note> and shewes his face offering to justify and cleere himself of whatsoever can be layde to his charge. Here is a proclamation come foorth against pocket dagges <note>Pistols. (S. T. C., 8181.)</note>, and order is gon into most shires to disarme the papists; what secret cause there may be I know not, but the world here growes suspicious and apprehends great daunger from them, and many rumours are raised, as namely the last weeke that the earle of Huntington was slaine by them in his owne house; whereupon at Coventrie and War- wicke they shut theyre gates and mustered theyre souldiers, and at Banburie and those parts the people made barricados and all other manner of provision, as yf they looked presently to be assaulted. The Lady of Shrewsburie <note>Mary, wife of Gilbert Talbot, seventy Earl of Shrewsbury. Since 1610 she had been a prisoner in theTower for acquiescing in the marriage of her niece, the Lady Arabella Stuart.</note> that hath ben long in the Towre, and had the libertie of the place, and somtimes leave to attend her Lord in his sicknes, is now of late restrained and kept more close, upon somewhat discovered against her (they say) by her niece the Lady Arbella. Judge Williams <note>Sir David Williams, Puisne Justice of King's Bench.</note> died on Friday last at his house in the countrie leaving a great state behind him both in land and wealth, and the same day Sir Antonie Senligier <note>Sir Anthony St. Leger.</note> that was Master of the Rolles in Ireland died here in towne. Sir Thomas Bodley is even now likewise at the last cast, and hath lien speachles and without knowledge since yesterday at noone. God comfort him and send him a good passage. Our marchants have dayly many losses, and now lately, there was a ship of 300 tunne cast away in the river of Hamborough laden with goods to the value of 80000 li, and now the last weeke a ship bound for the straights suncke between this and Gravesend. The Prince Palatin goes to be installed <note>As Knight of the Garter.</note> at Windsor the seventh of the next moneth, and great preparations here are of braverie, maskes, and fireworkes against the mariage <note>Of Frederick, the Elector Palatine, and the Princess Elizabeth.</note>: the opinion is now that they shall go away both together before the end of April. This night he feasts all the counsaile at Essex House. So with all due remembrance to my Lady and Mistris Carleton I commend you to the protection of the Almighty. From London this 28th of January 1612.</p> <l>Your Lordships to command</l> <l>JOHN CHAMBERLAIN.</l> <p>To the right honorable Sir Dudley Carleton Knight Lord Ambassador for his Majestie at Venice.</p> </div> <div> <head>162. TO SIR RALPH WINWOOD.</head> <l>[Winwood Papers, vol. viii.]</l> <l>[London, January 29, 1613.]</l> <p>My very good Lord: I am sory to understand by yours of the 29th of December that there is such a slumber or slacknes growne upon them at Venice that they forget theyre best frends, for I will not impute yt to yll manners, or any froward conceit towards you, but only to a meere negligence. I have cause enough likewise to complaine of theyre neglect, and specialy for that those few letters I have thence are continually full of excuses, wherby I perceve they see theyre owne fault but meane not to mend yt, but still devise new phrases and tricks and excusandas excusationes. Yet still I kepe mine old course, and send them those ordinarie occurrents that come in my way, which though they be poore and sleight, yet are not unwelcome to them that seldome are otherwise better provided. We heare the King is still at Newmarket somwhat troubled with an humor in his great toe which must not yet be christned or called the gowte. Presently upon his going the counsaile tooke theyre severall wayes, and gave themselves some libertie of recreation for a whole weeke, but are now as close at yt again as ever. Mary they still find defects for want of assistance in some busines: and indeed complaine that matters find not that redy dispatch that were to be wished, so that no doubt they will importune the King at his return to resolve upon sombody. The day of the Kings departure hence the Lord Archbishop feasted the Palsgraves followers, which he tooke so kindly that when they were redy to sit downe, himself came, though he were neither in- vited nor expected: the entertainment was very great, and such as became both the giver and recever. The earle of Arundell <note>Thomas Howard, second Earl of Arundel and Surrey.</note> is returned out of Italie, so well satisfied that they say he hath animum revertendi and will thether again: though he had a very hard passage homeward, and was almost cast away twixt Callis and Dover and escaped narrowly. We have had the straungest winter here that I thincke was ever seene, for warmth and wet: and to say the truth we have not had one cold day all this yeare. I hope there is the more behind, or els we are but in yll case for corne and fruit, which are so forward that there is litle hope they shold come to goode, without some nipping and keping backe. We have likewise had straunge windes, which have ben so violent and continuall as I never knew the like, with great tempests of thunder and lightning in divers places (though not here at London) especially at a place in Kent called Chart, where in the Christmas holy-dayes the people beeing at church, there were 35 blasted with lightning wherof the minister in the pulpit was one, though they be all since recovered, saving a miller that was stroke dead in the place, and one more that died sixe or seven dayes after. Judge Williams <note>For comments on this letter, see also Letter 161.</note> died on Friday last, leaving a great estate behind him both in land and wealth: likewise Sir Antonie Senligier that was Master of the Rolles in Ireland died here in towne the last weeke. Master Robert Sherly with his Persian Lady are shipt away homeward in a ship that goes for the East Indies, leaving theyre litle sonne behind and bequeathing him to the care and favor of the Quene his God mother: he hath stayed here well by yt to litle purpose, having no great reason to hast away, seeing he had allowance of fowre pound a day of the King during his abode here. Sir Thomas Glover is come home from Constantinople, contrarie to expectation, for his comportement was given out to be such there, that there was an opinion he durst not have shewed his face, but he makes offer to justifie himself in whatsoever can be laide to his charge. Here is a proclamation come foorth against pocket dagges: and order is gon into most shires to disarme the papists; what secret cause there may be I know not but the world growes suspicious and apprehends great daunger from them; and many rumors are raised as namely the last weeke that the earle of Huntington was slaine by them in his owne house, wherupon at Coventrie and Warwicke they shut theyre gates, and at Banburie and those parts the people made all manner of provision, as yf they looked pres- ently to be assaulted. The Lady of Shrewsburie that hath ben long in the Towre, and had the libertie of the place, and somtimes to attend her Lord in his sicknes, is now of late restrained and kept more close, upon somwhat discovered against her (as they say) by her niece the Lady Arbella. The Prince Palatin goes to be installed at Windsor the seventh of the next moneth, and great preparations here are of braverie, maskes, and fire-workes against the mariage: the opinion is now that they shall go away both together before St. Georges day. Sir Thomas Bodley is come to the last cast, and surely I thincke he cannot last many dayes, yet he bestirres himself in busines and bargaines as yf there were no such matter; and relies upon phisicke as much as when he first fell sicke, having run over all the best phisicians of this towne, and is now fallen into Doctor Fosters <note>Richard Forster.</note> hands: yet he is somewhat discouraged that he cannot get Butler <note>William Butler.</note> of Cambrige to come at him, not so much as to speake with him, for he sayes wordes cannot cure him, and he can do nothing els to him: for upon sight of his water he sent him word what case he was in. He hath setled all things as he sayes, and wold seeme resolute, but God send him a goode resolution, for I doubt he is very neere his dissolution. Having written thus far on Wensday morning by way of provision, and seeing the wind so setled that there was no hope of sending away, I forbare to seale yt up, in expectation what might fall out, and that afternoone Sir Thomas Bodley grew speachles and out of knowlege, and so continued till yesterday between fowre and five in the afternoone that he departed. Presently Sir John Bennet and Master Hackwell <note>William Hakewill, a kinsman of Sir Thomas Bodley.</note> his executors opened the will <note>Printed in full in W. D. Macray, Annals of the Bodleian Library, ed. 1890, pp. 202-418.</note>, a copie wherof no doubt shalbe sent you, for he hath nominated you and Sir Henry Savile overseers and the Lord Archbishop, the Lord Chauncellor <note>Thomas Egerton, Lord Ellesmere.</note>, and the Lord Cooke <note>Sir Edward Coke.</note> supravisors and for theyre paines bequeathed them cuppes of gold of the value of 50 li a peece. Master Gent <note>William Gent.</note> came to me this morning as yt were to bemoan himself of the litle regard hath ben had of him and others, and indeed for ought I heare there is scant any body pleased, but for the rest yt were no great matter yf he had had more consideration, or rather commiseration where there was most need: but he was so caried away (yf a man may say so) with the vanitie and vaine glorie of his librarie that he forgat all other respects and duties (almost) of conscience, frendship or goode nature, and all he had was too litle for that worke. To say the truth I did never relie much upon his conscience, but I thought he had ben more reall and ingenious: I cannot learn that he hath geven any thing, no not a goode word, nor so much as named any old frend he hath but Master Gent and Tom Allen <note>Thomas Allen, the mathematician.</note>, who like a couple of almesmen must have his best and second gowne, and his best and second cloke: but to cast a colour or shadow of somwhat upon Master Gent, he sayes that he forgeves him all he ought him which Master Gent protests to be never a pennie: I must intreat you to pardon me yf I seeme somewhat impatient in his behalf, who hath ben so servile to him, and indeed such a perpetuus servus, that he deserved a better reward: neither can I denie but I have a litle indignation for my self, that having ben acquainted with him almost forty years, and observed and respected him so much, I shold not be remembered with the value of a spoone or a mourning garment, wheras yf I had gon before him (as poore a man as I am) he shold not have found himself forgotten: but his thoughts descended not so low as to such mean frends, but contrarie to the course of true naturall affection (which they say ever descends) mounted altogether aloft to flatter and currie favor with the higher powers now when he was to have no more use of them. The Countesse of Salisburie <note>Katherine, daughter of Thomas Howard, first Earl of Suffolk, and wife of William Cecil, second Earl of Salisbury.</note> was brought abed of a daughter on Wensday night and had a very hard travayle. There is a great breach fallen out twixt Vicount Fenton and Sir H. Nevile about the executorship to Sir John Norris, which may chaunce marre all, or at least hinder the fayre course he was in, for the Lord is very violent, and gon with open month to complain to the King, that he cannot have his will against law and equitie. Yesternight the Prince Palatin feasted all the counsaile at Essex house where in regard of the goode entertainment he found with th Lord Archbishop, he shewed more kindnes and caresses to him and his followers then to all the rest put together: so with the remembrance of my best service to my goode Lady I commend you and all yours to the protection of the Almighty. From London this 29th of January 1612.</p> <l>Your Lordships to command</l> <l>JOHN CHAMBERLAIN.</l> </div> <div> <head>163. TO ALICE CARLETON.</head> <l>[S. P. Dom., Jac. I, lxxii, 23.]</l> <l>[London, February 4, 1613.]</l> <p>Mistris Carleton, Your sister Williams <note>Elizabeth, wife of Alexander Williams.</note> tells me she wrote so at large to you the last weeke, that she hath left nothing for me, but to geve you thanks for your letter of the 20th of January which I receved upon Sunday; and to desire you to excuse me yf I do not fulfill your commaundment in visiting your sister Underhill <note>Bridget, wife of Hercules Underhill of Idlicote, Warwickshire.</note>, unles yt were to more purpose then to exchaunge a few fine words and phrases, which I was never goode at, and cannot now begin: for I thincke you wold not have me expostulat her not writing to you, or begg a letter at her hands; but I remember in one of your last lettres you gave me commission to speake to Master Waake to go to her, who indeed is more fit as comming lately from you, and beeing to go so shortly towards you. Yesterday there was a great meeting at Sir Henry Saviles about the conclusion of a match for Mistris Elizabeth <note>Elizabeth, only daughter of Sir Henry Savile, married John Sedley or Sidley (knighted, 1616), son of Sir William Sedley of Southfleet, Kent, by his wife, Elizabeth, widow of Henry Neville, sixth Lord Abergavenny.</note> with the only sonne of Sir W. Sidley of Kent that maried the Lady Abergeyney: Sir Henry Nevile was there and Sir John Lewson but what passed I have not yet heard. The Lady Haddingdon <note>Elizabeth, daughter of Robert Radcliffe, fifth Earl of Sussex, and wife of John Ramsay, Viscount Haddington.</note> was forward with child and miscaried the last weeke. About this day sevenit the Countesse of Salisburie <note>For notes on this letter, see also Letter 162.</note> was brought abed of a daughter, and lies in very richly, for the hanging of her chamber, being white satin, embroidered with gold (or silver) and perle is valued at fowreteen thousand pounds. The Prince Palatin feasted all the counsaile the last weeke, and carried himself with great commendation, but specially he respected the archbishop and his followers above all the rest, as having receved only at his hands entertainment and kind usage since his comming into England. On Sonday last and on Candlemas day he and his Lady were solemnly asked openly in the chappell by the bishop of Bath and Wells <note>James Montagu.</note>, and the next Sonday is the last time of asking. Here is extraordinarie preparation for fireworkes and fights upon the water, with three Castles built upon eight westem barges, and one great castle upon the land over against the court. One or two of the Kings pinnesses are come already from Rochester and divers other vessells to the number of sixe and thirty are provided some like gallies, some galleasses, and some like carraques and other ships of warre, and above five hundred watermen alredy pressed, and a thousand musket- ters of the trained bande in the shires hereabout made redy for this service, which in all computation cannot stand the King in so litle as five thousand pound. On Tewsday I tooke occasion to go to court because I had never seen the Palsgrave, nor the Lady Elizabeth (neere hand) of a long time: I had my full view of them both, but will not tell you all I thincke, but only this, that he owes his mistres nothing yf he were a Kings sonne as she is a Kings daughter. The worst is mee thincks he is much too young and small timbred to undertake such a taske. The Count Maurice at the receving of the garter in the Lowe Countries shewed himself very bountifull, and gave great rewards to the king of Heraulds and his followers, as perhaps your brother may understand from Sir Rafe Winwod, though yt may be he will not certifie that himself had a cup of gold for a present worth five hundred pound: he hath ben very fortunat for such wind-falls though he hath no great fortune from Sir Thomas Bodley, where there was more reason to expect yt: for dieng in his house (which he bought of him above a yeare since,) he hath left him litle or nothing but his old armorie that he could not tell well what els to do withall, and is in no way worth twenty marke. He died on Thursday last between fowre and five in the afternoon having lien speachles and without knowing any body almost thirty howres. His executors are Sir John Bennet and Master Hackwell a younge lawier, Sir Rafe Winwod and Sir Henry Savile his overseers, and supravisors over them the archbishop of Caunterburie, the Lord Chauncellor and the Lord Cooke, to each of these last bequeathing a cup of gold of the value of fifty pound, wheras to his brothers <note>His brothers, Sir Josias Bodley, military engineer in Ireland, and Laurence Bodley, canon of Exeter, the four sons of his brother Miles, who died in 1594, and the children of his sisters, as well as his wife’s children by her first husband, are all remembered in his will.</note> he hath left very litle, and to his brothers sonnes who are his heyres and must hold up his house and name scant any thing. To Master Gent and Tom Allen like a couple of almesmen he hath left his best and second gowne and his best and second cloke, but to cast a colour or shadow of somwhat upon Master Gent, he makes a clause that he forgeves him all he ought him, which Master Gent protests to be never a pennie, and hath much ado to withhold from blasing how much and many wayes he was beholding to him in former times, and indeed indebted: but howsoever yt be, his beeing so obsequious and servile to him so long a time deserved a better recompence and reward. But his servants murmure and grumble most, with whom he hath dealt very mecanically <note>Basely, parsimoniously.</note>: some of them having served him and her very painfully above two and twenty yeare, others sixteen, others fowreteen, and the best not reaping after so long expectation above twenty pounds, the rest ten, and those not past two or three neither. He makes no mention of any frend he had, not so much as for a mourning garment, nor will not allow yt his servants unles they go to his funerall at Oxford to fetch yt, but let goode nature go, yf he had had regard of conscience toward his wifes children by whom he had all his wealth, but in truth he hath dealt hardly with one of them who hath many children and is in need and distresse, and by his meanes: the story wherof is too long for a letter: and all this for a vainglory and shew of goode deeds, for he hath geven about seven thousand pound to his librarie at Oxford, and two hundred pound to Merton Colledge, besides mourning to all the students of that house from the highest to the lowest. This and such like makes me know and esteem the world as yt is, nothing but vanitie and in that meditation I will leave and commit you to God.

TO SIR RALPH WINWOOD.</head> <l>[Winwood Papers, vol. viii.]</l> <l>[London, February 10, 1613.</l> <p>My very goode Lord: I am now in arrierages with you for both your letters of the 21th and 26th of the last moneth: but yt is not altogether my fault, for yf I knew the times and dayes when to send I wold not be so farr behind hand: but the best is you have here so diligent an observer <note>Lady Winwood was then in London.</note> of all occasions, that nothing can scape unadvertised, so that were yt not more to shew my goode will and serviceable affection, then for any matter of worth, my double diligence might well enough be spared. The King, Prince and Count Palatin came home yesterday from the installation <note>Of Frederick, the Elector Palatine, and of Count Maurice of Nassau as Knights of the Garter.</note> at Windsor, where the Count Lodovic of Nassau supplied the place of Count Maurice putting in his caveat salvis consti- tutionibus Foederatarum Provinciarum, as likewise the Prince Palatin salvo jure Imperii. I heare our Lords made some difficultie to yeeld that Count Maurice shold skip over theyre heads and be placed next the Princes, but the case was overruled. The mariage drawes neere and all things are redy. On Sonday was theyre last time of asking opening in the chappell. The Quene growes every day more favorable, and there is hope she will grace yt with her presence. Here is a troupe of three or five hundred musketts made redy by the citie to gard the court during these triumphes: and we have extraordinarie watches of substantiall housholders every night, and an alderman in person to oversee them. The preparations for fire workes and fights upon the water are very great and have alredy consumed 6000 li which a man wold easilie beleve that sees the provision of sixe and thirty sayle of pinnesses, gallies, galeasses, carraques and other vessells so trimmed, furnished and painted, that I beleve there was never such a fleet seen above the bridge, besides fowre floting castles with fire workes, and the representation of the towne, fort and haven of Argier upon the land. There was expectation of some cre- ation of noble-men at this solemnitie, but we heare no more of yt, only yt is thought we shall have a new frie of knights to the number of forty at the least, for the Lady Elizabeths followers have no other meanes to put themselves in equipage, but make port-sale <note>Public sale to the highest bidder.</note> and kepe as yt were open market to all commers for 150 li a man. I cannot learne that she carries over any English man of sort to continue about her but all Scottes, but I thincke the women are for most part English toward nineteen or twenty. The time of his and her departure hence is already prefixed to be about Thursday in Easter weeke, that falles to be the 8th of Aprill. The King at his beeing at Newmarket made seven or eight knights wherof Sir Humfry May was the leader, Sir Robert Wingfeld (that lately maried a daughter of Sir Roger Ashtons), Sir Olave Lee, Sir... Undrill <note>Sir Edward Underhill.</note> late proctor of Oxford, Sir... Clopton, Sir... Wild <note>Sir Edmund Wyld.</note> and I know not who els. The Lady Haddington <note>Cf.

The Lady of Bedford <note>Lucy, daughter of John, first Lord Harington of Exton, and wife of Edward Russell, third Earl of Bedford.</note> lies in weake case (and they say) drawing on. The Countesse of Salisburies daughter <note>Cf. Letter 162.</note> is to be christned this day in the Kings chappell the Quene and the Countesse of Suffolke her mother beeing to be Godmothers. Here be many devises on foote to find monie and among the rest they speake of a benevolence which is to be laide up and called aes or rather aerarium sacrum, not to be touched but in cases of extremitie, and in defence of the realme. The circuits are all altered and the Lord Cooke <note>Sir Edward Coke.</note> put to go Northampton, Lincoln and Lecestershire, for the King sayes he will make no more use of Non obstantes, that Judges may ride and kepe assises in theyre owne country. Sir William St. John a sea-man, that was to be one of our cheif commaunders in this freshwater fight, is committed to the Fleet for replieng somewhat roundly to a lie (as I heare) geven him at the counsaile table by the earle of Northampton <note>Henry Howard, Earl of Northampton.</note>.

I doubt not but ere this time you have a copie of Sir Thomas Bodleys will; whose funerall is to be performed at Oxford the 22th of March, and his body to be buried in Merton College. His executors do what they can to stop the clamors and complaints of his people, and other speaches spred of him, and his hard dealing. One argument of his vanitie I will adventure to communicate unto you, though yt were in a manner committed to me sub sigillo confessionis, and so I pray you let yt remain till you heare more. He hath written his owne life in seven sheetes of paper, and not leaving out the least minutezze, or omitting nothing that might tend to his owne glorie or commendation, he hath not so much as made mention of his wife or that he was maried, wherby you may see what a mind he carried, and what account he made of his best benefactors; this treatise is commended to the handes of the prime prelate, who I feare will suppresse yt, for he hath too much judgment to let yt be published: as I was closing up this letter I receved yours of the 5th of this present which doth so much double my debt, that I have no other way to repay yt but with the offer of my true and faithfull service which is as much at yours and your goode Ladies command as of any two living, and so I commend you both and all yours to the protection of the Almighty.

TO SIR DUDLEY CARLETON.</head> <l>[S. P. Dom., Jac. I, lxxii, 26.]</l> <l>[London, February 11, 1613.]</l> <p>My very goode Lord: Though here be much ado and great noise and stirring, yet have I litle to advertise. The King, Prince and Count Palatin came home on Tewsday from the installation <note>For notes on this letter, see Letter 164.</note> at Windsor, where the Count Lodowic of Nassau supplied the place of Count Maurice, putting in his caveat salvis constitutionibus Provinciarum foederatarum, as likewise the Prince Palatin salvo jure Imperii. I heare that our Lords made some difficultie to yeeld that Count Maurice shold skip over theyre heades and be placed next to the Princes, but the case was overruled. Count Henry of Nassau was dayly expected, as appointed by the States to performe that ceremonie for his brother, and to assist at the wedding, but by reason of contrarie weather he arrived not till yesternight. The mariage drawes neere and all thinges are redy. On Sonday was theyre last time of asking opening in the chappell: the Quene growes every day more favorable, and there is hope she will grace yt with her presence. Here is a band of 500 musketters made redy by the citie to gard the court during these triumphs, and we have extraordinarie watches of substantiall housholders every night, and an alderman in person to oversee them. Many searches are made, and much listening there is, which geves occasion to suspect that there is intelligence of some intended treacherie. Order is gon out likewise for generall musters through out all England to be finished by the end of March, and there is almost a confirmed opinion that we are to looke for troubles in Ireland. The preparations for fire workes and fights upon the water are very great, and have already consumed 6000 li which a man wold easilie beleve that sees the provision of sixe and thirty sayle of great pinesses, galeasses, carraques with great store of other smaller vessells so trimmed, furnished and painted, that I beleve there was never such a fleet seen above the bridge, besides fowre floting castles with fire workes, and the representation of the towne, fort and haven of Argier upon the land. This day they are to begin to play theyre prises, and so to continue and hold on to morrow and Saterday. The tides fall out very fit as beeing both spring tides, and the water at the best heigth from three to sixe, so that yf the weather serve as well they can wish no more, for they have the whole river at libertie, being shut up both above and beneath with a huge number of lighters and long masts that no boates can come to trouble them. Sir Robert Mansell is cheife commaunder, who takes great paines and no doubt will do his best to shew his abilitie: Sir William St. John a goode sea-man that was to be likewise a principall actor in this fresh-water fight, was lately committed to the Fleet, for misdemeanure in his charge in Ireland (as some say) others for replieng somewhat roundly to a lie geven him at the counsaile table by one of the Lords. Yt was once thought we shold have some creation of noble-men at this solemnitie, but we heare no more of yt: only there is speach of a new frie of knights to the number of forty, for the Lady Elizabeths followers have litle other meanes to put themselves in equipage, but (they say) make port-sale and kepe as yt were open market to all commers for 150 li a man. I cannot learne that she carries over any Englishman of sort to continue about her, but all Scotts. Mary I heare the women are for the most part English toward nineteen or twenty. The time of his and her departure hence is already prefixed to be about Thursday in Easterweeke which falls out to be the eighth of Aprill. The King at his beeing at Newmarket made seven or eight knights, wherof Sir Humfry May was leder, the rest Sir Robert Wingfeld, (that lately maried a daughter of Sir Roger Ashtons) Sir Olave Lee, Sir Ed: Undrill of Hamshire (that was the late proctor of Oxford and the last yeare buried his father and two elder brethren) Sir... Clopton, Sir... Wild and I know not who els. We have many devises on foote to find monie and among the rest they speake of a benevolence, which is to be laide up and called aes or rather aerarium sacrum, not to be touched but in cases of extremitie, and for defence of the realme. The circuits are all altered, and the Lord Cooke put to go to Northampton, Lincoln and Lecester- shire, for the King sayes he will make no more use of Non obstantes that Judges may ride and kepe assises in theyre owne countrie. The Lady of Bedford lies in weake case (and they say) drawing on. The Countesse of Salisburies daughter was to be christned this day in the Kings chappell, but yt is now put of till next weeke. The Quene and the Countesse of Darbie <note>Elizabeth, daughter of Edward de Vere, seventeenth Earl of Oxford, and wife of William Stanley, sixth Earl of Derby.</note> are to be Godmothers and the Lord Admirall Godfather. So will all due remembrance to my Lady and Mistris Carleton I commend you to the protection of the Almighty.

TO ALICE CARLEION.</head> <l>[S. P. Dom., Jac. I, lxxii, 30.</l> <l>[London, February 18, 1613.]</l> <p>Mistris Carleton: Though Master Waake <note>Isaac Wake, Carleton’s secretary, who after several months in England was about to return to Venice.</note> be now comming and lookes for his dispatch within a day or two, who is able to make a large discourse of all that passed at this wedding <note>Of the Princess Elizabeth and Frederick, Elector Palatine, which took place on February 14.</note>, yet because this is like to arrive there before him, I will geve you a litle touch or taste of that, wherof you may receive from him full and complete satisfaction. On Thursday night the fireworks were reasonablie well performed all save the last castle (of five) which bred most expectation and had most devises, but when yt came to execution, had worst successe. On Saterday likewise the fight upon the water came short of that shew and bragges had ben made of yt, but they pretend the best to be behind and left for another day, which was the winning of the castle on land: but the King and indeed all the compare tooke so litle delight to see no other activitie but shooting and potting of gunnes that yt is quite geven over and the navie unrigged and the castle pulled downe, the rather for that there were divers hurt in the former fight, (as one lost both his eyes, another both his hands, another one hande, with divers others maymed and hurt) so that to avoyde further harme, yt was thought best to let yt alone, and this is the conclusion of all the preparation with so much expence of powder and monie which amounted to no lesse then nine thousand pound. On Sonday I was fetcht from Sowles (where l was set at the sermon) to see the bridge go to church, and though yt were past ten a clocke before we came there yet we found a whole window reserved in the jewell-house, which was over against her comming downe a payre stayres out of the gallerie in the preaching-place to a long stage or gallerie made along the court into the hall; so that we had as much view as a short passage could geve, but the excesse of braverie, and the continued succession of new companie did so dasell me that I could not observe the tenth part of that I wisht. The bridgegrome and bridge were both in a sute of cloth of silver richly embrodered with silver, her traine carried up by thirteen younge Ladies (or Lords daughters at least) besides five or sixe more that could not come neere yt: these were all in the same liverie with the bride, though not so rich. The bride was maried in her haire that hung downe long, with an exceding rich cornet on her head (which the King valued the next day at a million of crownes). Her two bridemen were the younge Prince and the earle of Northampton. The King and Quene both followed, the Quene all in white but not very rich saving in jewells: the King me thought was somewhat straungely attired in a cap and a feather, with a Spanish Cape and a longe stocking. The chappell was very straightly kept none suffred to enter under the degree of a baron, but the three Lords Cheife Justices <note>Sir Thomas Fleming, Chief Justice of King’s Bench; Sir Edward Coke, Chief Justice of Common Pleas; Sir Lawrence Tanfield, Chief Baron of the Exchequer.</note>: in the midst there was a handsome stage or scaffold made, on the one side wherof sat the Kinge, Prince, Count Palatin and Count Henry of Nassau, on the other side the Quene with the bride and one or two more. Upon this stage they were maried by the archbishop of Caunterburie assisted by the bishop of Bath and Wells (who made the sermon). Yt was don all in English, and the Prince Palatin had learned as much as concerned his part reasonable perfectly. The French, Venetian and States ambassadors dined that day with the bride. The Spanish ambassador was sicke and the archdukes was invited for the next day but wold not come. That night was the Lords maske <note>By Thomas Campion. It is printed with A relation of the late royall entertainment given by the Lord Knowles. (S. T. C., 4545; Chambers, iii, 241-244.</note> wherof I heare no great commendation save only for riches, theyre devises beeing long and tedious and more like a play then a maske. The next morning the King went to visit these young turtles that were coupled on St. Valentines day, and did strictly examine him whether he were his true sonne in law, and was sufficiently assured. That afternoone the King, Prince, Count Palatin with divers others ran at the ring, and when that was ended, and the King and Prince gon, the Palsgrave mounted upon a high bounding horse, which he managed so like a horsman, that he was excedingly commended and had many showts and acclamations of the beholders, and indeed I never saw any of his age come neere him in that exercise. Yt were long and tedious to tell you all the particularities of the excessive braverie both of men and women, but you may conceive the rest by one or two. The Lady Wotton <note>Margaret, daughter of Philip, third Lord Wharton, and the second wife of Edward, first Lord Wotton of Marley.</note> had a gowne that cost fifty pound a yard the embrodering. I heare the earle of Northumberlands daughter <note>Henry Percy, ninth Earl of Northumberland, then a prisoner in the Tower, had two daughters: Dorothy, who in 1616 married Sir Robert Sidney (second Earl of Leicester, 1626), and Lucy, who in 1617 married James, first Lord Hay (Viscount Doncaster, 1618, Earl of Carlisle, 1622).</note> was very gallant, and the Lord Montague <note>Anthony Browne, second Viscount Montague.</note> (that hath paide reasonablie well for recusancie) bestowed fifteen hundred pound in apparell for his two daughters. The Vicount Rochester, the Lord Hayes and the Lord Dingwell were exceding rich and costly but above all they speake of the erle of Dorset, but this extreem cost and riches makes us all poore. On Monday night was the Middle Temple and Lincolns Ynne maske <note>By George Chapman. (S. T. C., 4981, 4982; Chambers, ii, 260-262. )</note> presented in the hall at court, wheras the Lords was in the bancketting roome. Yt went from the Rolles <note>In Chancery Lane.</note> all up Fleet-street and the Strand, and made such a gallant and glorious shew that yt is highly commended. They had forty gentlemen of best choise out of both houses rode before them in theyre best array, upon the Kings horses: and the twelve maskers with theyre torch-bearers and pages rode likewise upon horses excedingly well trapped and furnished: besides a dousen litle boyes, dresst like babones that served for an antimaske, (and they say performed yt exceedingly well when they came to yt), and three open chariots drawne with fowre horses a peece that caried theyre musicians, and other personages that had parts to speake: all which together with theyre trumpetters and other attendants were so well set out, that yt is generally held for the best shew that hath ben seen many a day. The Kinge stood in the gallerie to behold them and made them ride about the tilt-yard, and then were receved into St. James Parke and went all along the galleries into the hall, where themselves and their devises (which they say were excellent) made such a glittering shew that the King and all the companie were excedingly pleased, and especially with theyre dauncing, which was beyond all that hath ben yet. The King made the maskers kisse his hand at parting, and gave them many thanckes, sayeng he never saw so many proper men together, and himself accompanied them at the banket, and tooke care yt shold be well ordered, and speakes much of them behind their backes, and strokes the master of the rolles <note>Sir Edward Phelips.</note> and Dick Martin <note>Richard Martin of the Middle Temple.</note> who were the cheife dooers and undertakers. On Tewsday yt came to Grayes Ynne and the Inner Temples turne to come with theyre maske, wherof Sir Fra: Bacon was the cheife contriver, and because the former came on horse backe, and open chariots, they made choise to come by water from Winchester Place in Southwarke: which suted well enough with theyre devise, which was the mariage of the river of Thames to the Rhine: and theyre shew by water was very gallant by reason of infinite store of lights very curiously set and placed: and many boats and barges with devises of light and lampes, with three peales of ordinance, one at theyre taking water, another in the Temple garden, and the last at their landing: which passage by water cost them better then three hundred pound. They were receved at the privie stayres: and great expectation theyre was that they shold every way exceed theyre competitors that went before them, both in devise, daintines, of apparell, and above all in dauncing (wherein they are held excellent) and esteemed for the properer men: but by what yll planet yt fell out I know not, they came home as they went without dooing any thing, the reason wherof I cannot yet learne thoroughly, but only that the hall was so full that yt was not possible to avoyde yt or make roome for them, besides that most of the Ladies were in the galleries to see them land, and could not get in: but the worst of all was that the King was so wearied and sleepie with sitting up almost two whole nights before, that he had no edge to yt, wherupon Sir Fra Bacon adventured to intreat his Majestie, that by this disgrace he wold not as yt were bury them quicke: and I heare the King shold aunswer, that then they must burie him quicke for he could last no longer, but withall gave them very goode wordes and appointed them to come again on Saturday <note>It was presented February 20. Cf. Letter 167.</note>: but the grace of theyre maske is quite gon when theyre apparell hath ben already shewed and theyre devises vented so that how yt will fall out God knowes, for they are much discouraged, and out of countenance, and the world sayes yt comes to passe after the old proverb the properer men the worse lucke. One thing I had almost forgotten for hast that all this time there was a course taken and so notified that no Lady or gentleman shold be admitted to any of these sight with a verdingale <note>Farthingale.</note>, which was to gaine the more roome, and I hope may serve to make them quite left of in time. And yet there were more scaffolds and more provision made for roome then ever I saw both in the hall and banketting roome, besides a new roome built to dine, sup and daunce in. And thus in great haste I commit you to God. From London this 18th of February 1612.</p> <l>Yours most assuredly</l> <l>JOHN CHAMBERLAIN.</l> </div> <div> <head>167. TO SIR RALPH WINWOOD.</head> <l>[Winwood Papers, vol. viii.]</l> <l>[London, February 23, 1613.]</l> <p>My very goode Lord: Since my last of the 10th of this present here hath ben litle to advertise, but the consummation of the Lady Elizabeths mariage with the Count Palatin, together with the triumphes and shewes both before and after <note>For notes on this letter, see also Letter 166.</note>. I need not tell you how much this match is to the contentment of all well affected people, and what joy they take in yt, as beeing a firme foundation for the stablishing of religion, which (upon what conceit I know not) was before suspected to be in bransle. But the Roman Catholikes maligne yt as much, and do what they can to disgrace yt as beeing the ruine of theyre hopes. The Quene that seemed not to taste yt so well at first, is since so come about that she doth all she can to grace yt, and takes speciall comfort in him. The solemnities were performed in the chappell, whether the bride was conveyed on a scaffold or open gallerie all alonge the courtyard, arrayed in white, with her haire hanging downe long, and a rich coronet on her heade, led by the younge Prince and the earle of Northampton her bride-men: and her traine carried up by thirteen younge Ladies (or Lords daughters at least) besides five or sixe more that could not come neere yt, all suted in the same liverie of white and embroiderie. The bishop of Bath and Wells preached, and the archbishop performed the other rites and cere- monies upon a stage raised in the middes of the chappell, on the right side wherof sat the King with the Prince, Palsgrave, and Count Henry <note>Of Nassau.</note>, on the other the Quene, with the bride, the Lady Harrington <note>Anne, wife of John, first Lord Harington of Exton.</note>, and one or two more. The chappell was kept very straight, and none admitted under the degree of a baron, saving the three Lords Cheife Justices: the contract and mariage was celebrated all in English, and the Prince Palatin had learned as much as concerned his part reasonable perfectly. Yt were to no end to write of the curiositie and excesse of braverie both of men and women: with the extreme daubing on of cost and riches, only a touch shall serve in a few for a pattern of the rest. The Lady Wotton was saide to have a gowne that cost fifty pound a yeard the embrodering: and the Lord Montague (that hath paide reasonable well for recusancie) bestowed 1500 in apparell upon his two daughters. The bridegroome and bride with the Prince, French, Venetian, Count Henry and States ambassadors dined in a roome built of purpose for this mariage. The Spaniard was, or wold be sicke, and the archdukes ambassador beeing invited for the next day made his excuse, and the ambassadors that were present, were not altogether pleased (as I heare) but every one found some puntillo of disgust. There was a matter happened the same day, which though yt were not then so much noted, hath since bred much speach: Lion the Scottish king of Heralds beeing expresly sent for, ware a rich coate of armes (provided here) with the armes of Scotland before England; which is thought to be a great affront offered at such a time, in such a place, to such a people. Now for the fire works and fight upon the water, (the one performed the Thursday night, the other on Saterday in the afternoone before the mariage) there was nothing in either aunswerable to the great expectation conceved, or the cost bestowed, which amounted to more than 9000 li so that according to the proverb Parturiunt montes et ct. Marry they pretend the best was kept backe for another day, but the King and indeed all the companie were so sufficiently unsatisfied with this, that they cared not nor desired to see any more, the rather for that there was much hurt don, and divers maymed. The Lords maske likewise on the mariage night, though yt were very rich and sumptous, yet yt was very long and tedious, and with many devises more like a play then a maske, but the Middle Templers and Lincolns Ynne gave great contentment on Monday night, as well with theyre gracefull comming on horsebacke, as in all the rest of theyre apt invention, apparell, fashion, and specially theyre excellent dauncing, wherewith the King was so much delighted that he gave them many thanks, and much commendation as well to theyre faces as behind theyre backs. But the next day our Grayes Ynne men and the Inner Temple had not the same fortune, though they deserved no lesse: for striving to varie from theyre competitors, (and theyre devise beeing the marieng of the Thames to the Rhine,) they made choise to go by water from Winchester-house in Southwarke, with theyre boats and barges excedingly trimmed, and furnished with store of lights that made a glorious shew, and three peale of ordinance (at theyre taking water, at theyre passing by the Temple, and at theyre landing,) which passage by water cost them better then 300 li. But when they were landed at the court, (by what mischaunce I know not) they were faine to return as they went without dooing any thing, the reason wherof some say was because the hall was so full that yt could not be avoyded nor roome made for them, and most of the principall Ladies (that were in the galleries to see theyre leading) excluded: but the most probable is that the King was so satiated, and overwearied with watching the two nights before, that he could hold out no longer and so was driven to put yt of till Saterday, when yt was very well performed in the new banketing house, which for a kind of amends was graunted to them though with much repining and contradiction of theyre emulators <note>The masque was by Francis Beaumont. (S. T. C., 1663; Chambers, iii, 233-235.</note>. The next day the King made them all a solemne super in the new mariage roome, and used them so well and graciously that he sent both parties away well pleased. At this great solemnitie there was no creation of noblemen, nor making of knights as was most assuredly expected, the reason wherof is diversly interpreted. The speach is now who shalbe commissioners to conduct the Lady Elizabeth home, and to see her and her joynter well setled: the Duke of Lennox <note>Ludovick Stuart, second Duke of Lennox.</note>, the earle of Arundell <note>Thomas Howard, second Earl of Arundel and Surrey.</note>, the vicount Lile <note>Robert Sidney, Viscount Lisle.</note>, the Lord Zouch <note>Edward, eleventh Lord Zouche.</note> and the Lord Harrington <note>John, first Lord Harington of Exton.</note> are named, and Levinus for secretarie in that service. I doubt not but you have heard of the death of the Lady Conway <note>Dorothy, daughter of Sir John Tracy, and wife of Sir Edward Conway, Governor of the Brill.</note>, and the Lady Mary Nevill <note>Mary, daughter of Thomas Sackville, first Earl of Dorset, and wife of Sir Henry Neville, ultimately Lord Abergavenny.</note> (the Lord Treasurer Dorsets daughter): yesterday there was a sodain bruit that the Lord Zouch was dead or in great daunger. The King went yesterday to Tiballs and so toward Roiston and Newmarket to enjoy this fayre weather, and the Count Palatin is to follow that way, and so to Cambrige very shortly. The Quene removes this weeke to Greenwich: and this beeing all I have for the present I will commend your goode Lady and all yours to Gods holy protection.

I, Ixxii, 48.]</l> <l>[London, February 25, 1613.]</l> <p>My very goode Lord: Yt seemes by your letter of the 22th of the last, that since mine of the 17th of December, two ordinaries together came empty; the reason wherof I cannot conceive, seeing I have not fayled any weeke since that time of writing to you or Mistris Carleton <note>Alice Carleton.</note>, or both. Master Waake <note>Isaac Wake, Carleton's secretary, who had been in England for several months</note> is now in procinctu, having taken his leave of his Majestie and stayes only for his dispatch and letters, which he hath, or is promised to have this day at the farthest. On Friday Sir Walter Cope sent for me to see a sacrifice made of your papers <note>Cf. Letter 161.</note>, which in the presence of Sir Antony Cope and myself he threw into the fire and saw them consumed, beeing to my remembrance fowre or five, I know not whether. The King went away on Monday to Tiballs and so toward Roiston and Newmarket, whence he is not expected till the 22th of March. The Prince and Count Palatin follow him this day, and meane the next weeke to visit Cambrige: and there is speach that before Easter they will make a progresse to Oxford: which wilbe a goode errand for the young maried gentleman, whose frends and followers wish he might oftener have occasion to visit his uncle. All well affected people take great pleasure and contentment in this match, as beeing a firme foundation and stablishing of religion, which (upon what ground I know not) was before suspected to be in bransle: and the Roman Catholikes maligne yt as much, as beeing the ruine of theyre hopes. The Quene likewise is well come about, and graces yt all she can and seemes to take speciall comfort in him. Yesterday was the great christning of the earle of Salisberies daughter <note>Cf. Letters 162, 164.</note> in the chappell at court, whence the Quene, Prince, Palatin, Lady Elizabeths highnes and all the companie convoyed yt home and went by water to the banket. The Quene removes to morrow to Grenwich to injoy this fayre weather which hath ben exceding cleere, sweet and pleasant almost this fortnight. Our revells and triumphes within doores gave great content- ment beeing both daintie and curious in devise and sumptuous in shew: specially the ynnes of court whose two maskes <note>Cf. Letters 166, 167.</note> stoode them in better then 4000 li besides the gallantrie and expence of private gentlemen, that were but ante-ambulones and went only to accompanie them. And our Grayes Ynne men and the Ynner Templers <note>For notes on this letter, see also Letters 166, 167.</note> were nothing discouraged for all the first dodge, but on Saterday last performed theyre parts exceding well, and with great applause and approbation both from the King and all the companie. The next night the King invited the maskers with theyre assistants to the number of forty to a solemne supper in the new mariage roome, where they were well treated and much graced with kissing his Majesties hand, and every one having a particuler accoglienza from him. The King husbanded the matter so well that this feast was not at his owne cost, but he and his companie wan yt upon a wager of running at the ring of the Prince and his nine followers, who payed thirty pound a man: the King, Quene, Prince, Palatin and Lady Elizabeth sat at table by themselves: and the great Lords and Ladies with the praskers (above fowrescore in all) sat at another long table, so that there was no roome for them that made the feast but they were faire to be lookers on, which the young Lady Rich <note>Isobel, daughter of Sir Walter Cope, and wife of Sir Henry Rich.</note> tooke no great pleasure in to see her husband (who was one that payde) not so much as drincke for his monie. The ambassadors that were at this wedding and shewes were the French, Venetian, Count Henry and Caron for the States: the Spaniard was, or wold be sicke, and the arch- dukes ambassador beeing invited for the second day made a sullen excuse: and those that were present were not altogether so pleased, but that I heare every one had some puntillo of disgust. The Duke of Lennox, the Vicount Lile, the Lord Zouch, and the Lord Harrington are in speach to be commissioners to go over with the Lady Elizabeth, to see her and her joynter setled, and Levinus <note>Levinus Munck.</note> is named secretarie for that service. I heare the earle of Arundell is added to the number, who meanes to carry over his Lady, and no doubt they will both make another viage into Italie. Till the very howre that the King went hence men were still in suspence, and great expectation there was of new officers, and Sir H. N. <note>Sir Henry Neville.</note> frends made full account of him from day to day, but beeing now driven from that hold, they spin out theyre hopes till the Lady Elizabeth be past the Lowcountries, and then we shall see what will become of our goode frend there <note>Sir Ralph Winwood</note>, for whom one place is thought to be reserved, and for my part I thincke yt most probable but yf we fayle then yt shalbe the last time of my looking at any such busines. We were much deceved likewise in our expectation of new creations of noble men and knightings, at these solemnities, for the King wold not be drawne to yt by any meanes, which hath mard the market, or rather raised the price to extraordinarie rate. Only the Deputie of Ireland <note>Sir Arthur Chichester.</note> is made Lord Chichester of Belfast against the parlement that is to be held there in May. This weeke here died the Lady Mary Nevill (daughter to the late Treasurer Dorset), of a longe languishing sicknes; and the Lady Conway of the Brill much after the same sort, as likewise Sir William Cookes Lady <note>Lucy, daughter of Sir Thomas Lucy of Charlecote, Warwickshire.</note> of Charing Crosse. Sir Henry Savile shewed me the last weeke his notes taken in the reading of Sir Thomas Bodleys life <note>Cf. Letter 164.</note>, written by himself in seven sheets of paper with vanitie enough, wherin omitting not the least minutezze that might turne to his glorie, he doth not so much as make mention of his wife, nor that he was maried; nor of Secretarie Walsingham <note>Sir Francis Walsingham, Secretary of State, 1573-1590.</note> nor the earle of Lecester <note>Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, Queen Elizabeth’s favorite.</note> who were all his maine raisers, whereby may be seen, what mind he caried to his best benefactors. Here was an odde fray fell out the last weeke twixt one Huchinson <note>Thomas Hutchinson of Owthorpe, Nottinghamshire.</note> of Grayes Ynne and Sir German Poole, who assaulting the other upon advantage, hurt him in three or fowre places, and cut of three of his fingers before he could draw his weapon, wherupon inraged he flew upon him and getting him downe bit of a goode part of his nose and carried yt away in his pocket. I had almost forgotten one accident at this late wedding, which was not then much noted, but is since much spoken of. Lion the Scottish king of Heralds beeing expressed sent for, had a rich coat of armes provided here, with the armes of Scotland before those of England, and ware yt (as he saide) by commaundment, which is not much required into but howsoever yt is thought a strange affront offered at such a time in such a place to such a people. So with all due remembrance to my Lady and Mistris Carleton I commend you to the protection of the Almighty. From London this 25th of February 1612.</p> <l>Your Lordships to commaund</l> <l>JOHN CHAMBERLAIN.</l> <p>To the right honorable Sir Dudley Carleton knight Lord Ambassador for his Majestie at Venice.</p> </div> </body> </text> </TEI>

His great grandfather emigrated from the isle of <lb/>Wight in England, among the earliest of those who settled with <lb/>Penn in Pennsylvania. The family, from the first emigrant <lb/>down to the subject of this memoir, were Quakers, & chiefly de= <lb/>=voted to agriculture.</p> <p><lb/>When young he received only an imperfect English education, <lb/>which in after life he felt & regretted, & which he endeavored <lb/>to supply, as far as he was able, by his own industry & application <lb/>to private studies. At the age of fourteen he was taken from school <fw>[Nov 15, 1830]</fw> <pb facs="/sites/default/files/2024-12/plumer_vol5_006.jpg" n="2"/> <fw>1814</fw> <fw>John Lacey.</fw> <lb/>& employed occasionally on the farm, but principally in <lb/>tending a mill, which his father owned. Here he devoted his <lb/>leisure moments to reading & study & with the aid of borrowed <lb/>books acquired a decent stock of useful knowledge.</p> <p><lb/>In this manner his time was principally occupied, till the dis= <lb/>=putes between Great Britain & the colonies assumed a serious as= <lb/>=pect. Many of his nearest connections, & most of the Quakers, the sect <lb/>to which he then belonged, were in favor of the claims of Great Bri= <lb/>=tain, but he zealously espoused the cause of his country, & united <lb/>with those who prepared to resist the oppressive measures of the <lb/>parent country. A volunteer association of young men was for= <lb/>=med in the county, to learn the use of arms, & he was unanimous= <lb/>=ly chosen their captain.</p> <p><lb/>On the recommendation of the general congress, several battal= <lb/>=ions of troops were ordered to be raised in Pennsylvania, for the <lb/>defense of the country; & the 5th of January 1776, congress appointed <lb/>him a captain. In about twenty days after he received his commission, <lb/>he enlisted his full compliment of men; & was attached to the fourth <lb/>battallion commanded by col. Anthony Wayne; & were directed to ren= <lb/>=devous at Chester-from Chester they were soon ordered to New <lb/>York, & from thence towards Canada. About this time a misunder= <lb/>=standing arose between the colonel & himself; but he continued to <lb/>serve out the residue of the campaign; during which he was <lb/>selected by general Sullivan to go express into Canada, with com= <lb/>=munications to general Arnold; tho a hazardous undertaking, <lb/>he effected it to entire satisfaction. When the army went into <lb/>winter quarters he sent in his resignation, accompanied with <lb/>a detailed statement of his reasons for a proceedure so little congenial <lb/>with his wishes, & his original views, but which existing circumstances, <lb/>in his opinion, imperiously required him to adopt.</p> <p><lb/>On the 22d of March 1777 he was appointed an officer, with the <lb/>rank of lieutenant colonel, to organize & class the militia of Pernsyl= <lb/>=vania, to call out the classes, & fine those who should prove de= <lb/>=linquent. On the 6th of May following he was appointed lieutenant <lb/>colonel in the militia.</p> <p><lb/>After the British had taken possession of Philadelphia, a draft was <lb/>made on the militia of Bucks county to releive those whose time of <lb/>service had nearly expired, & being & anxious for active employment <lb/>he solicited & obtained command of a regiment, from the officer whose <lb/>term it was to take the field. Having collected between three and <fw>[Nov 19, 1830]</fw> <pb facs="/sites/default/files/2024-12/plumer_vol5_007.jpg" n="3"/> <fw>1814</fw> <fw>John Lacey.</fw> <lb/>four hundred men, he marched from Newtown, & in the beginning <lb/>of November joined general Potter's brigade at Whitemarsh. While <lb/>on this tour of duty, he was engaged in frequent skirmishes with <lb/>parties of the enemy, & in one of some severity near the gulph <lb/>mills on Schuykill, from which he had a narrow escape, in <lb/>consequence of his perseverance in rallying & encouraging the <lb/>troops, in the face of a superior force. General Washington, in <lb/>his orders of the next day, commended him for his conduct on that <lb/>occasion. After this affair he commanded a detactment of militia <lb/>on the eastern side of the Schuykill till the close of the campaign.</p> <p><lb/>His active exertions in suppressing intercourse with the Bri= <lb/>=tish, & breaking up the iniquitous traffic of their adherents, had <lb/>by this time so strongly excited the tories & disaffected, that they <lb/>menaced him with personal vengeance; but a spirit so determi= <lb/>=ned, & devoted to the service as his, was not to be influenced by such <lb/>considerations.</p> <p><lb/>On the 9th of January 1778, he not being then quite twenty three <lb/>years of age, the government of Pennsylvania appointed him a <lb/>brigadier general. Without delay he repaired to his post, & had <lb/>an important duty to perform, on the lines, while the British <lb/>occupied Philadelphia. The utmost vigilance was required, <lb/>to cut off the intercourse of the tories with the city, & to watch <lb/>the movements of the enemies parties, who denounced vengeance <lb/>against him, & declared they would have him, dead or alive. <lb/>He was incessantly employed in this service, till the middle <lb/>of May, at the head of a fluctuating body of militia, whose force <lb/>sometimes amounted to five hundred men, but was <lb/>frequently reduced to half that number. On the first of May, ow= <lb/>=ing to the misconduct of the officer commanding the scouts, his <lb/>camp was surprised, by a strong detachment of the British, con= <lb/>=sisting, according to their own accounts, of four hundred light <lb/>infantry, three hundred rangers, & a party of light dragoons, <lb/>under the command of colonel Abercrombie. He was assailed <lb/>on all sides, about daylight, & was for a short time, in a perilous <lb/>situation. He determined on a bold expedient, & hastily forming <lb/>his little band, he fought his way thro the enemy, with the loss of <lb/>twenty six killed, & an inconsiderable number of wounded, & <lb/>prisoners.</p> <p><lb/>A number of hazardous enterprizes in the vicinity of the <lb/>enemy's outposts, requiring great address & dexterity in the <fw>[Nov 16, 1830]</fw> <pb facs="/sites/default/files/2024-12/plumer_vol5_008.jpg" n="4"/> <fw>1814</fw> <fw>John Lacey.</fw> <lb/>execution, were undertaken by him, at the request of gene= <lb/>=ral Washington; & were performed, for the most part, with <lb/>success, & always to the satisfaction of the latter. The command= <lb/>=er in chief imposed upon Lacey an unpleasant duty, to be <lb/>performed among his neighbors & relations-the derangement <lb/>of their grist mills, & the destruction of grain, forage, & other <lb/>private property, to distress the enemy by preventing him from <lb/>drawing supplies from that part of the country. This painful service <lb/>he executed reluctantly, but impartially, in all cases.</p> <p><lb/>After the British had evacuated Philadelphia, he was elected a mem= <lb/>=ber of the general assembly, from the county of Bucks, & took his seat <lb/>in November 1778. The next year he was elected to the council, <lb/>of which he was a member for the three succeeding years. <lb/>In 1780 general Washington apprehensive that the enemy <lb/>again intended to invade Pennsylvania, general Lacey was ordered <lb/>to Trenton, New Jersey, with a brigade of the militia; & continued <lb/>in the service most of the time till october 1781. He was an officer <lb/>of a remarkable fine, martial appearance, of a determined, en= <lb/>=terprising character, devoted to the cause of his country. <lb/>During his last command he married a daughter of colonel <lb/>Reynolds of New Jersey, & shortly after removed to that State, <lb/>& settled at the village of New Mills, in Burlington county, <lb/>where he became largely concerned in iron works. He was for <lb/>many years an active & useful citizen, having been member of <lb/>the legislature, justice of the peace, & judge of the county court where <lb/>he resided.</p> <p><lb/>In the latter part of his life he was much afflicted with the <lb/>gout, of which he died February 17th 1814 aged fifty nine years.</p> </div> </body> </text> </TEI>

His <lb/>father for a few years was pastor of a church at Weymouth, but the delicate <lb/>& feeble state of his health induced him to seperate from his people, & <lb/>remove to Boston, where he engaged in business as a merchant, in which <lb/>he was unfortunate. His mother was the grand-daughter of governor <lb/>Treat of Connecticut, from whom he derived his second name.</p> <p><lb/>The early preparatory & classical education of the son, was under the, <lb/>direction of the celebrated Mr Level, an instructor of youth in Boston. <lb/>In the year 1745, being about fourteen years of age, he entered as a stu= <lb/>=dent at Harvard University; & in 1749 graduated there.</p> <p><lb/>For several years after he left college, his pursuits appear to have been of a <lb/>miscellancous nature. For some time he was employed in teaching a <lb/>public school in a country town. He devoted a portion of his time to <lb/>the study of theology; & on that subject formed opinions that were liberal <lb/>& rational. In 1755 he was a few months with the troops of Massachusetts; <lb/>& occasionally preached in the pulpits of the regular clergy in Boston. He <lb/>made a voyage to Europe, to which he was induced by a desire to acquire <lb/>means to assist his father & family, who were in reduced circumstan= <lb/>=ces, & some of whom were of a very infirm & sickly constitution. His <lb/>conduct in this respect, was highly credible to him; & he continued to <lb/>afford support to a maiden sister till her death, which was not till <lb/>she was far advanced in years. He never suffered her to want.</p> <p><lb/>tho he had a large family to maintain, & no estate but such as he <lb/>acquired by his own industry & prudence. He also contributed to the sup= <lb/>=port of his father for several years in the latter part of his life, who <lb/>had been unsuccessful in business; & the attention & respect which he <lb/>always shewed to an unfortunate, but worthy parent, merits <lb/>commendation.</p> <p><lb/>After his return from Europe, he engaged in the study of law, with <lb/>Benjamin Pratt an eminent lawyer, who afterwards was chief justice of <fw type="catch">[Feby 9, 1830]</fw> <pb facs="/sites/default/files/2024-12/plumer_vol5_002.jpg" n="2"/> <fw type="header"><date when-iso="1814">1814</date>. <persName>Robert Treat Paine</persName>.</fw> <lb/>New York. But having no pecuniary assistance from his father, he was <lb/>obliged, during this period, to resort again to the profession of a school <lb/>=master for his support; which prevented him from finishing his <lb/>professional studies, & entering into the practise of the law as soon as <lb/>otherwise, he would have done; but he came to the courts with more <lb/>weight of character, maturity of judgment, & knowledge of men and <lb/>things then most of his contemporaries.</p> <p><lb/>He was admitted to the Bar, & took up his residence in Boston, where <lb/>he remained a short time, & then removed to Taunton in the county of <lb/>Bristol, where he continued for many years; & there married a lady <lb/>who survived him. While he remained at Taunton he fequently <lb/>attended courts in other counties. As a lawyer he was learned, as an ad- <lb/>=vocate argumentative, discriminating, prompt, & satirical. He was <lb/>thoroughly acquainted with the great principles of common law, with decisions & <lb/>precedents of courts; & ever ready to reply to his opponents with pertinence & <lb/>effect, or to fixe the attention of the jury by just & appropriate remarks. <lb/>He was attentive to every thing he undertook, & rapidly acquired busi= <lb/>=ness & confidence; & stood high in the profession.</p> <p><lb/>He was devoted to the interest of his country, & early opposed the encroach= <lb/>=ments of the British government; & was a constant, firm, & zealous <lb/>advocate for the American revolution. About the year 1769 he was a re= <lb/>presentative in the provincial legislature. In 1773 he was a representative, <lb/>& member of the committee who reported an address to Lord Dartmouth <lb/>upon the oppressive acts of the British administration; & one of the <lb/>committee to manage the impeachment against Peter Oliver chief justice <lb/>of the Supreme court. He was also chairman of the committee of Taunton <lb/>upon the subject of American grievances, & took a decided part in= <lb/>=dicating the rights of the colonies. In 1774 he was again a representative <lb/>in the legislature, & was an active influential member; & one of the com= <lb/>=mittee who recommended the calling of a general congress.</p> <p><lb/>In 1774 the Massachusetts house of representatives elected him a member of <lb/>the continental congress; & by annual elections he held that place till the <lb/>close of the year 1778. In 1796 he signed the declaration of independence. <lb/>As a member of congress he was firm, resolute, & determined active and <lb/>efficient. He was a member of several important committees, & one <lb/>the general committee from the northern States, to regulate the price of <lb/>labor, provisions, manufactures etc. In congress, & in committees, he displayed <lb/>sound discriminating judgment, & practical wisdom; yet with these qualities <lb/>he had a frankness & severity which produced enemies to him, & obstructed <lb/>his usefulness. He had a voice whose tones were a deep base, & a serious <fw type="catch">[<date when-iso="1830-02-09">Feby 9, 1830</date>]</fw> <pb facs="/sites/default/files/2024-12/plumer_vol5_003.jpg" n="3"/> <fw type="header"><date when-iso="1814">1814</date>. <persName>Robert Treat Paine</persName>.</fw> <lb/>if not stern expression of countenance, which gave him an appearance of <lb/>greater severity than he possessed. Yet he had kind feelings, & a <lb/>strong relish of humor, <lb/>tho with this peculiarty, that his perception of it was not quick, & the <lb/>report of his laugh was sometimes not heard, till the flash of the jest had <lb/>entirely vanished. But his talents, integrity, & great decision of character <lb/>commanded respect - indeed few men contributed more than he did <lb/>to the support of the revolution.</p> <p><lb/>In 1774 & 1775 he was a member of the Massachusetts provincial con= <lb/>=gress. In 1777 was a representative in the legislature of that State, and <lb/>part of the time speaker of the house; in 1778 he was also a representative, <lb/>& a member of the committee who drafted a constitution for that State; <lb/>but the people did not approve of it. In 1779 he was a member of <lb/>the Massachusetts convention, & of the committee who drew the constitution, <lb/>which the people in 1780 adopted. In 1775 & 1779 he was a mem <lb/>=ber of the executive council. There appointments occupied nearly the whole <lb/>of his time in public service.</p> <p><lb/>In 1778 he was appointed attorney general of Massachusetts; & in October <lb/>1780, as soon as the government was organized under the constitution, <lb/>he was again appointed the attorney general of the commonwealth <lb/>& held & executed that office with great fidelity till 1790. To those <lb/>who were habitually vicious & dissolute, he was severe & indignant. <lb/>In 1775 he was appointed a judge of the supreme court under the Massa <lb/>=chusetts provincial congress, but it being incompatible with his <lb/>duty as a member of the continental congress, he declined the appoint= <lb/>=ment. In January 1790 he was again appointed a judge of that court; <lb/>accepted & held that office till 1804, when he had attained the age of seven= <lb/>=ty three years. Being too infirm to travel the circuit of the court, <lb/>which was a journey of several hundred miles; & his deafness in a <lb/>great measure disqualified him for the trust; & after having performed <lb/>the duties of that important office fourteen years, he resigned. During <lb/>the time he was on the bench, he used his official authority & influ= <lb/>=ence in favor of literary & religious institutions; which he considered <lb/>essential to the support of morals & rational freedom. He constantly <lb/>urged upon grand jurors the importance of seeing the laws duly <lb/>executed, for the maintainance of schools & a learned ministry, <lb/>in all the towns. But with all his good qualities, as a judge he <lb/>was too severe against offenders, too prone to convict, and too <lb/>ready to punish. <fw type="footer">[<date when-iso="1830-02-09">Feby 9. 1830</date>]</fw></p> <pb facs="/sites/default/files/2024-12/plumer_vol5_004.jpg" n="4"/> <fw type="header"><date when-iso="1814">1814</date>. <persName>Robert Treat Paine</persName>.</fw> <p><lb/>He was a decided friend to the constitution of the United States, which <lb/>he supported both by his writings & conversations. He employed his <lb/>influence in favor of the administrations of Washington & the older <lb/>Adams; & during the initial periods of 1794 & 1779 he advocated the <lb/>measures of government, with great zeal, energy, & ability; believing <lb/>those measures essential to the interest of his country.</p> <p><lb/>He was a patron of useful learning, & held a high rank among the <lb/>literary men our country. He was one of the founders of the Ameri= <lb/>=can Academy of Arts & Sciences & one of its councillors from its <lb/>establishment in 1780 till his death. In 1806, Harvard University <lb/>conferred on him the degree of doctor of laws. He read much & thot <lb/>much. His knowledge was extensive & well digested. His memory <lb/>retentive & ready & his measures practical & operative. <lb/>He possessed much of the peculiar spirit of the early settlers of New <lb/>England. He was a firm decided believer in christianity; but laid <lb/>little stress on speculative opinions, which have been so often, <lb/>unhappily, the occasion of bitter & disreputable contentions among <lb/>professors of religion. He was the friend of christians, & the patron of <lb/>their ministers.</p> <p><lb/>He was literally a man of decision, & of strong passions, but was <lb/>upright & strictly honest. His language was plain & blunt, & his <lb/>manner partook more of roughness than of the polish of the polite <lb/>world. For a man of such strong passions, his habits were regular <lb/>& mild, & his temper cheerful.</p> <p><lb/>Tho he devoted much of his time to the public, he was much with <lb/>family; & as a companion & father was affectionate, provident, ex= <lb/>emplary, & endeared. He was domestic in his habits, & his family <lb/>circle was the scene of unrestrained freedom & enjoyment. His <lb/>children were well educated, & every effort was made, on his <lb/>part, to make them useful & respectable in society. But he did not <lb/>allow his fondness for them, to countenance any extravagance which <lb/>his pecuniary circumstances would not warrant, without being <lb/>unjust to others. His attachments, public & private, were warm & <lb/>sincere. Of a most active mind, & social dispositions, he cheered <lb/>the circle of kindred, friendship, & neighbourhood.</p> <p><lb/>Soon after he resigned the office of judge, he was elected a mem= <lb/>=ber of the executive council in the commonwealth for the year <lb/>1805; but declined a re-election, & resolutely withdrew from pub= <lb/>=lic life.

Florence. They have consistently resisted hierarchal structures and male-dominated institutions and their development of feminist theory has been detailed in publications such as <persName key="Carla Lonzi" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q3658850">Carla Lonzi</persName>'s <title key="Sputiamo su Hegel" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q42245141" cert="high">Sputiamo su Hegel</title> (1970) and <title level="m">La Donna clitoridea e la donna vaginale</title> (1977), the collective's <title><emph>Sessualita femminile e aborto</emph></title> (1977) and <persName key="Carla Accardi" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q2939027">Carla Accardi</persName>'s <title><emph>Superiore e inferiore</emph></title> (1972).

All publications are available from Rivolta Femminile, Via del Babuino 16, Rome, Italy.</quote> <div><p>We in Rivolta Femminile refuse to pay tribute to male creativity because we are aware that in the patriarchal world—that is, in a world made by men and for men—even the liberating force of creativity is the prerogative of men. Woman—in so many ways a subsidiary being—is denied every role which could effect a recognition of these inequities. For her, there is no prospect of liberation.</p> <p>The creativity of men speaks to the creativity of other men while woman, as client and spectator of that dialogue, is assigned a status which excludes competition. Woman is locked into a role which, <lang><emph>a priori</emph></lang>, assures the male artist an audience. While <emph>creating</emph> art is seen to have a liberating function, art as an institution insists that woman be the neutral witness to the work of others. Man's energy, even in art, is spent by competing with other men. Only the contemplation of art invites woman's involvement.</p> <p>This is the nature of patriarchal creativity: to depend upon aggressive competition with male rivals and on the passive appreciation of women. Man, the artist, feels abandoned by woman as soon as she abandons her archetypal spectator's role; their mutual solidarity rests solely on <pb facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_103.jpg"/> the conviction that, as a spectator gratified by creativity, woman reaches the highest possible point in the evolution of her species.</p> <p>But, on the contrary, woman is discovering that the patriarchal world <emph>needs</emph> her—that man's self-liberating efforts absolutely depend on her—and that <emph>woman's</emph> liberation can only be realized independent of patriarchal previsions and the dynamics by which men liberate themselves. The artist depends upon woman to glorify his work and she, until she begins her own liberation, is happy to oblige. The work of art cannot afford to lose the security inherent in her exclusively receptive role.</p> <p>Once aware of her position in relation to male creativity, woman is left with two possibilities: the first—until now, the only available option—of distinguishing herself within the creative hierarchy historically defined by men (which alienates her from other women while men recognize her only indulgently); or—the feminist alternative—of autonomously recovering her own creativity, nourished by her awareness of past oppression.</p> <p>To celebrate male creativity is ultimately to submit to the historic sovereignty of men, to that patriarchal strategy which deliberately subjugates us. But let woman remove herself, and the struggle for male supremacy becomes not man lording it over woman, but merely a struggle between individual men.</p> <p>By refusing to celebrate male creativity, we are not judging creativity, nor are we contesting it. Rather, with our absence, we are refusing to accept it as defined; we are challenging the concept of art as something which men graciously hand down to us. By ceasing to believe in a refracted liberation, we are unleashing creative energy from patriarchal bonds.</p> <p>With her absence, woman performs a dramatic act of awareness, creative because it <emph>is</emph> liberating. </p> </div> </div> </body> </text> </TEI>

Glass Swan: Upward and Downward Mobility in the Art World</title></head> <byline><persName key="Lucy R. Lippard" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q137115">Lucy Lippard</persName></byline> <p>The general alienation of contemporary avant-garde art from any broad audience has been crystallized in the women's movement. From the beginning, both liberal feminists concerned with changing women's personal lives and socialist feminists concerned with overthrowing the classist/racist/sexist foundations of society have agreed that "fine" art is more or less irrelevant, though holding out the hope that feminist art could and should be different. The American women artists' movement has concentrated its efforts on gaining power within its own interest group—the art world, in itself an incestuous network of relationships between artists and art on the one hand and dealers publishers, buyers on the other. The "public," the "masses," or the "audience" is hardly considered.</p> <p> The art world has evolved its own curious class system. Externally this is a microcosm of capitalist society, but it maintains an internal dialectic (or just plain contradiction) that attempts to reverse or ignore that parallel. Fame may be a higher currency than mere money, but the two tend to go together. Since the buying and selling of art and artists is done by the ruling classes or by those chummy with them and their institutions, all artists or producers, no matter what their individual economic backgrounds are dependent on the owners and forced into a proletarian role—just as women, in <persName key="Friedrich Engels" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q34787">Engels'</persName> analysis, play proletarian to the male ruler across all class boundaries. Looking at and "appreciating" art in this century has been understood as an instrument (or at best a result) of upward social mobility in which owning art is the ultimate step. Making art is at the bottom of the scale. This is the only legitimate reason to see artists as so many artists see themselves—as "workers." At the same time, artists/makers tend to feel misunderstood and, as creators, innately superior to the buyers/owners. The innermost circle of the art-world class system thereby replaces the rulers with the creators, and the contemporary artist in the big city (read New York) is a schizophrenic creature. S/he is persistently working "up" to be accepted, not only by other artists but also by the hierarchy that exhibits, writes about, and buys her/his work. At the same time s/he is often ideologically working "down" in an attempt to identify with the workers outside of the art context, and to overthrow the rulers in the name of art. This conflict is augmented by the fact that most artists are originally from the middle class, and their approach to the bourgeoisie includes a touch of adolescent rebellion against authority. Those few who have actually emerged from the working class sometimes use this—their very lack of background privilege—as privilege in itself, while playing the same schizophrenic foreground role as their solidly middle-class colleagues.</p> <p> Artists, then, are workers or at least producers even when they don't know it. Yet artists dressed in work clothes (or expensive imitations thereof) and producing a commodity accessible only to the rich differ drastically from the real working class in that artists control their production and their product—or could if they realized it and if they had the strength to maintain that control. In the studio, at least, unlike the farm, the factory, and the mine, the unorganized worker is in superficial control and can, if s/he dares, talk down to or tell off the boss—the collector, the curator, etc. For years now, with little effect, it has been pointed out to artists that the art-world superstructure cannot run without them. Art, after all, is the product on which all the money is made and the power based.</p> <p> During the 1950s and 1960s most American artists were unaware that they did <emph>not</emph> control their art, that their art could be used not only for esthetic pleasure or decoration or status symbols, but also as an educational weapon. In the late 1960s, between the Black, the student, the anti-war and the women's movements, the facts of the exploitation of art in and out of the art world emerged. Most artists and artworkers still ignore these issues because they make us feel too uncomfortable and helpless. Yet if there were a strike against museums and galleries to allow artists control of their work, the scabs would be out immediately in full force, with reasons ranging from self-interest to total lack of political awareness to a genuine belief that society would crumble without art, that art is "above it all." Or is it in fact <emph>below</emph> it all, as most political activists seem to think?</p> <p> Another aspect of this conflict surfaces in discussions around who gets a "piece of the pie"—a phrase which has become the scornful designation for what is actually most people's goal. (Why shouldn't artists be able to make a living in this society like everybody else? Well, <emph>almost</emph> <pb n="83" facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_085.jpg"/> everybody else.) Those working for "cultural change" through political theorizing and occasional actions are opposed to <emph>anybody</emph> getting a piece of the pie, though politics appears to be getting fashionable again in the art world and may itself provide a vehicle for internal success; today one can refuse a piece of the pie and simultaneously be getting a chance at it. Still, the pie is very small and there are a lot of hungry people circling it. Things were bad enough when only men were allowed to take a bite. Since "aggressive women" have gotten in there too, competition, always at the heart of the art-world class system, has peaked.</p> <p> Attendance at any large art school in the U.S. takes students from all classes and trains them for artists' schizophrenia. While being cool and chicly grubby (in the "uniform" of mass production), and knowing what's the latest in taste and what's the kind of art to make and the right names to drop is clearly "upward mobility"—from school into teaching jobs and/or the art world—the lifestyle accompanying these habits is heavily weighted "downward." The working-class girl who has had to work for nice clothes must drop into frayed jeans to make it into the art middle class, which in turn considers itself both upper and lower class. Choosing poverty is a confusing experience for a child whose parents (or more likely mother) have tried desperately against great odds to keep a clean and pleasant home. <note type="researchNote"><title><emph>Class and Feminism</emph></title>, ed. <persName key="Charlotte Bunch" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q5085869">Charlotte Bunch</persName> and <persName key="Nancy Myron" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q94280766">Nancy Myron</persName> (Baltimore, 1974). This book contains some excrutiating insights for the middle-class feminist; it raised my consciousness and inspired this essay (along with other recent experiences and conversations).</note> </p> <p> The artist who feels superior to the rich because s/he is disguised as someone who is poor provides a puzzle for the truly deprived. A parallel notion, rarely admitted but pervasive, is that a person can't understand "art" if their house is full of pink glass swans or their lawn is inhabited by gnomes and flamingos, or if they even care about house and clothes at all. This is particularly ridiculous now, when art itself uses so much of this paraphernalia (and not always satirically); or, from another angle, when even artists who have no visible means of professional support live in palatial lofts and sport beat-up $100 boots while looking down on the "tourists" who come to SoHo to see art on Saturdays; SoHo is, in fact, the new suburbia. One reason for such callousness is a hangover from the 1950s, when artists really were poor and proud of being poor because their art, the argument went, must be good if the bad guys—the rich <emph>and</emph> the masses—didn't like it.</p> <p>In the 1960s the choice of poverty, often excused as anti-consumerism, even infiltrated the esthetics of art.<note type="scholarNote">Actually nothing new; the history of modern art demonstrates a constant longing for the primitive, the simple, the clear, the "poor," the noble naif, etc.</note> First there was <rs key="pop art" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q134147">Pop Art</rs>, modeled on kitsch, on advertising and consumerism, and equally successful on its own level. (Women, incidentally, participated little in Pop Art, partly because of its blatant sexism, sometimes presented as a parody of the image of woman in the media—and partly because the subject matter was often "women's work," ennobled and acceptable only when the artists were men.) Then came Process Art—a rebellion against the "precious object" traditionally desired and bought by the rich. Here another kind of co-optation took place, when temporary piles of dirt, oil, rags and filthy rubber began to grace carpeted living rooms. The Italian branch was even called <emph>Arte Povera</emph>. Then came the rise of a third-stream medium called "conceptual art" which offered "anti-objects" in the form of ideas—books or simple xeroxed texts and photographs with no inherent physical or monetary value (until they got on the market, that is). Conceptual art seemed politically viable because of its notion that the use of ordinary, inexpensive, unbulky media would lead to a kind of socialization (or at least democratization) of art as opposed to gigantic canvases and huge chrome sculptures costing five figures and filling the world with more consumer fetishes.</p> <p> Yet the trip from oil on canvas to ideas on xerox was, in retrospect, yet another instance of "downward mobility" or middle-class guilt. It was no accident that conceptual art appeared at the height of the social movements of the late 1960s nor that the artists were sympathetic to those movements (with the qualified exception of the women's movement). All of the esthetic tendencies listed above were genuinely instigated as rebellions by the artists themselves, yet the fact remains that only rich people can afford to 1) spend money on art that won't last; 2) live with "ugly art" or art that is not decorative, because the rest of their surroundings are beautiful and comfortable; 3) like "non-object art" which is only handy if you already have too many possessions—when it becomes a reactionary commentary: art for the overprivileged in a consumer society.</p> <p> As a child, I was accused by my parents of being an "anti-snob snob" and I'm only beginning to see the limitations of such a rebellion. Years later I was an early supporter of and proselytizer for conceptual art as escape from the commodity orientation of the art world, a way of communicating with a broader audience via inexpensive media. Though I was bitterly disappointed (with the social, not the esthetic achievements) when I found that this work could be so easily absorbed into the system, it is only now that I've realized why the absorption took place. Conceptual art's democratic efforts and physical vehicles were cancelled out by its neutral, elitist content and its patronizing approach. From around 1967 to 1971, most of us involved in conceptual art saw that content as pretty revolutionary and thought of ourselves as rebels against the cool, hostile artifacts of the prevailing formalist and minimal art. But we were so totally enveloped in the middle-class approach to everything we did and saw, we couldn't perceive how that pseudo-academic narrative piece or that art-world-oriented action <pb n="84" facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_086.jpg"/> in the streets was deprived of any revolutionary content by the fact that it was usually incomprehensible and alienating to the people "out there," no matter how fashionably downwardly mobile it might be in the art world. The idea that if art is subversive in the art world it will automatically appeal to a general audience now seems absurd. </p> <p> The whole evolutionary basis of modernist innovation, the idea of esthetic "progress," the "I-did-it-first" and "it's-been-done-already" syndromes which pervade contemporary avant garde art and criticism, are also blatantly classist, and have more to do with technology than with art. To be "avant-garde" is inevitably to be on top or to become upper-middle-class, because such innovations take place in a context accessible only to the educated elite. Thus socially conscious artists working in or with community groups and muralists try to disassociate themselves from the art world, even though its values ("quality") remain to haunt them personally.</p> <p> The value systems are different in and out of the art world, and anyone attempting to straddle the two develops another kind of schizophrenia. For instance, in the inner-city community murals, as <persName key="Eva Cockcroft" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q106308202">Eva Cockcroft</persName> points out elsewhere in this publication, the images of woman are the traditional ones—a beautiful, noble mother and housewife or worker, and a rebellious young woman striving to change her world—both of them celebrated for their courage to be and to stay the way they are and to support their men in the face of horrendous odds. This is not the art-world or middle-class "radical" view of future feminism, nor is it one which radical feminists hoping to "reach out" across the classes can easily espouse. Here, in the realm of aspirations, is where upward and downward mobility and status quo clash, where the economic class barriers are established. As <persName key="Russell, Michele D." ref="http://viaf.org/viaf/11163457050804813684/">Michele Russell</persName> has noted, <note type="researchNote">Michele Russell, "Woman and Third World," <title level="m">New American Movement</title> (June, 1973).</note> the Third-World woman is not attracted to the "Utopian experimentation" of the left (in the art world, the would-be Marxist avant-garde) or to the "pragmatic opportunism" of the right (in the art world, those who reform and co-opt the "radicals").</p> <p> Many of the subjects touched on here come back to Taste. To a poor woman, art, or a beautiful object, might be defined as something she cannot have. Beauty and art have been defined before as <emph>the desirable</emph>. In a consumer society, art too becomes a commodity rather than a life-enhancing experience. Yet the <persName key="Vincent van Gogh" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q5582">Van Gogh</persName> reproduction or the pink glass swan—the same beautiful objects that may be "below" a middleclass woman (because she has, in moving upward, acquired upper-class taste, or would like to think she has)—may be "above" or inaccessible to a welfare mother. The phrase "to dictate taste" has its own political connotations. A Minneapolis worker interviewed by students of artist <persName key="Don Celender" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q28873078">Don Celender</persName> said he liked "old art works because they're more classy," <note type="researchNote"><title level="m">Opinions of Working People Concerning the Arts</title>, ed. Don Celender (New York, 1975)</note> and class does seem to be what the traditional notion of art is all about. Yet contemporary avant-garde art, for all its attempts to break out of that gold frame, is equally class-bound, and even the artist aware of these contradictions in her/his own life and work is hard-put to resolve them. It's a vicious circle. If the artist/producer is upper-middle-class, and our standards of art as taught in schools are persistently upper-middle-class, how do we escape making art only for the upper-middle-class?</p> <p> The alternatives to "quality," to the "high" art shown in art-world galleries and magazines have been few, and for the most part unsatisfying, although well-intended. Even when kitsch, politics or housework are absorbed into art, contact with the real world is not necessarily made. At no time has the avant garde, though playing in the famous "gap between art and life," moved far enough out of the art context to attract a broad audience—that audience which has, ironically, been trained to think of art as something that has nothing to do with life and, at the same time, tends only to like that art which means something in terms of its own life, or fantasies. The dilemma for the leftist artist in the middle class is that her/his standards seem to have been set irremediably. No matter how much we know about what the broader public wants, or needs, it is very difficult to break social conditioning and cultural habits. Hopefully, a truly feminist art will provide other standards.</p> <p> To understand the woman artist's position in this complex situation between the art world and the real world, class and gender, it is necessary to know that in America artists are rarely respected unless they are stars or rich or mad or dead. Being an artist is not being "somebody." Middle-class families are happy to pay lip service to art but god forbid their own children take it so seriously as to consider it a profession. Thus a man who becomes an artist is asked when he is going to "go to work," and he is not-so-covertly considered a child, a sissy (a woman), someone who has a hobby rather than a vocation, someone who can't make money and therefore cannot hold his head up in the real world of men—at least until his work sells, at which point he may be welcomed back. Male artists, bending over backward to rid themselves of this stigma, tend to be particularly susceptible to insecurity and <emph>machismo</emph>. So women daring to insist on their place in the primary rank—as art makers rather than as art housekeepers (curators, critics, dealers, "patrons")—inherit a heavy burden of male fears in addition to the economic and psychological <pb n="85" facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_087.jpg"/> discrimination still rampant in a patriarchal, money-oriented society.</p> <p> Most art being shown now has little to do with any woman's experience, in part because women—rich ones as "patrons," others as decorators and "home-makers"—are in charge of the private sphere, while men identify more easily with public art—art that has become public through economic validation (the million-dollar <persName key="Rembrandt" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q5598" cert="high" type="real">Rembrandt</persName>). Private art is often seen as mere ornament; public art is associated with monuments and money, with "high" art and its containers, including unwelcoming whitewalled galleries and museums with classical courthouse architecture. Even the graffiti artists, whose work was unsuccessfully transferred from subways to art galleries, were all men, concerned with facades, with having their names in spray paint, in lights, in museums...</p> <p> Private art is visible only to intimates. I suspect the reason so few women "folk" artists work outdoors in large scale (like <persName key="Simon Rodia" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q1119723">Simon Rodia</persName>'s <title>Watts Towers</title> and other "naives and visionaries" with their cement and bottles) is not only because men aspire to erections and know how to use the necessary tools, but because women can and must assuage these same creative urges inside the house, with the pink glass swan as an element in their own works of art the living room or kitchen. In the art world the situation is doubly paralleled. Women's art until recently was rarely seen in public and all artists are voluntarily "women" because of the social attitudes mentioned above; the art world is so small that it is "private."</p> <p> Just as the living room is enclosed by the building it is in, art and artist are firmly imprisoned by the culture which supports them. Artists claiming to work for themselves alone, and not for any audience at all, are passively accepting the upper-middle class audience of the internal art world. This is compounded by the fact that to be middle-class is to be passive, to live with the expectation of being taken care of and entertained. But art should be a consciousness-raiser; it partakes of and should fuse the private and the public spheres. It should be able to reintegrate the personal without being satisfied by the merely personal. One good test is whether or not it communicates, and then, of course, what and how it communicates. If it doesn't communicate it may just not be very good art from anyone's point of view; or it may be that the artist is not even aware of the needs of others, or simply doesn't care.</p> <p> For there is a need out there, a need vaguely satisfied at the moment by "schlock." <note type="researchNote"><persName key="Bernard Kirschenbaum" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q10428700">Bernard Kirschenbaum</persName>, in correspondence. Celender, op. cit., offers proof of this need and of the huge (and amazing) interest in art expressed by the working class, though it should be said that much of what is called art would not be agreed upon by the taste dictators.</note> And it seems that one of the basic tenets of the feminist arts should be a reaching out from the private sphere to transform that "artificial art" and to more fully satisfy that need. For the art-world artist has come to consider her/his private needs paramount, and has too often forgotten about those of the audience, any audience. Work that communicates to a dangerous number of people is derogatorily called a "crowd pleaser." This is a blatantly classist attitude, taking for granted that most people are by nature incapable of understanding good art (ie., upper-class or quality art). At the same time, much ado is made about art-educational theories that claim to "teach people to see" (consider the political implications of this notion) and muffle all issues by stressing the "universality" of great art.</p> <p> It may be that at the moment the possibilities are slim for a middle-class art world's understanding or criticism of the little art we see that reflects working-class cultural values. Perhaps our current responsibility lies in humanizing our own activities so that they will communicate more effectively with all women. Hopefully we will aspire to more than women's art flooding the museum and gallery circuit. Perhaps a feminist art will only emerge when we become wholly responsible for our own work, for what becomes of it, who sees it, and who is nourished by it. For a feminist artist, whatever her style, the prime audience at this time is other women. So far, we have tended to be satisfied with communicating with those women whose social experience is close to ours. This is natural enough, since this is where we will get our greatest support, and we need support in taking this risk of trying to <emph>please</emph> women, knowing that we are almost certain to displease men in the process. In addition, it is embarrassing to talk openly about the class system which divides us, hard to do so without sounding more bourgeois than ever in the implications of superiority and inferiority inherent in such discussions (where the working class is as often considered superior as the middle class).</p> <p> A book of essays called <title level="m">Class and Feminism</title> written by The Furies, a lesbian feminist collective, makes clear that from the point of view of working-class women, class is a definite problem within the women's movement. As <persName key="Myron, Nancy, 1943-" ref="http://viaf.org/viaf/79318339/">Nancy Myron</persName> observes, middle-class women:</p> <quote>can intellectualize, politicize, accuse, abuse and contribute money in order not to deal with their own classism. Even if they admit that class exists, they are not likely to admit that their behavior is a product of it. They will go through every painful detail of their lives to prove to me or another working-class woman that they really didn't have any privilege, that their family was exceptional, that they actually did have an uncle who worked in a factory. To ease anyone's guilt is not the point of talking about class... You don't get rid of oppression just by talking about it.</quote> <pb n="86" facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_088.jpg"/> <p>Women are more strenuously conditioned toward upward cultural mobility or "gentility" than men, which often results in the woman consciously betraying her class origins as a matter of course. The hierarchies within the whole span of the middle class are most easily demarcated by lifestyle and dress. For instance, the much-scorned "Queens housewife" may have enough to eat, may have learned to consume the unnecessities, and may have made it to a desired social bracket in her community, but if she ventures to make art (not just own it), she will find herself back at the bottom in the art world, looking wistfully up to the plateau where the male, the young, the bejeaned seem so at ease.</p> <p> For middle-class women in the art world not only dress "down," but dress like working-class <emph>men</emph>. They do so because housedresses, pedal pushers, polyester pantsuits, perrnanents, the wrong accents are not such acceptable disguises for women as the boots, overalls and win breaker syndromes are for men. Thus young middle-class women tend to deny their female counterparts and take on "male" (unisex) attire. It may at times have been chic to dress like a native American or a Bedouin woman, but it has never been chic to dress like a working class woman, even if she's trying to look like <persName key="Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q165421">Jackie Kennedy</persName>. Young working-class women (and men) spend a large amount of avallable money on clothes; it's a way to forget the rats and roaches by which even the cleanest tenement-dwellers are blessed, or the mortgages by which even the hardest-working homeowners are blessed, and to present a classy facade. Artists dressing and talking "down" insult the hardhat much as rich kids in rags do; they insult people whose notion of art is something to work for-the pink glass swan.</p> <p> Yet women, as evidenced by the Furies' publication, and as pointed out elsewhere (most notably by <persName key="August Bebel" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q76520" cert="high" type="real">Bebel</persName>), have a unique chance to communicate with women across the boundaries of economic class because as a "vertical class" we share the majority of our most fundamental experiences—emotionally, even when economically we are divided. Thus an economic analysis does not adequately explore the psychological and esthetic ramifications of the need for change within a sexually oppressed group. Nor does it take into consideration that women's needs are different from men's—or so it seems at this still unequal point in history. The vertical class cuts across the horizontal economic classes in a column of injustices. While heightened class consciousness can only clarify the way we see the world, and all clarification is for the better, I can't bring myself to trust hard lines and categories where fledgling feminism is concerned.</p> <p> Even in the art world, the issue of feminism has barely been raised in mixed political groups. In 1970, women took our rage and our energies to our own organizations, or directly to the public by means of picketing and protests. While a few men supported these, and most politically conscious male artists now claim to be feminists to some degree, the political <emph>and</emph> apolitical art world goes on as though feminism didn't exist—the presence of a few vociferous feminist artists and critics not withstanding. And in the art world, as in the real world, political commitment frequently means total disregard for feminist priorities. Even the increasingly Marxist group ironically calling itself Art-Language is unwilling to stop the exclusive use of the male pronoun in its theoretical publications. <note type="researchNote">This despite their publication of and apparent endorsement of <persName key="Carolee Schneemann" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q299662">Carolee Schneemann</persName>'s "The Prounoun Tyranny" in the Fox, 3(1976)</note></p> <p> Experiences like this one and dissatisfaction with Marxism's lack of interest in "the woman question" make me wary of merging Marxism and feminism. The notion of the non-economic or "vertical" class is anathema to Marxists and confusion is rampant around the chicken-egg question of whether women can be equal before the establishment of a classless society or whether a classless society can be established before women are liberated. As <persName key="Sheila Rowbotham" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q432851">Sheila Rowbotham</persName> says of her own Marxism and feminism:</p> <quote>They are at once incompatible and in real need of one another. As a feminist and a Marxist I carry their contradictions within me and it is tempting to opt for one or the other in an effort to produce a tidy resolution of the commotion generated by the antagonism between them. But to do that would mean evading the social reality which gives rise to the antagonism. <note type="researchNote">Sheila Rowbotham, Women: Resistance and Revolution (London, 1972).</note></quote> <p>As women, therefore, we need to establish far more strongly our own sense of community, so that all our arts will be enjoyed by all women in all economic circumstances. This will happen only when women artists make conscious efforts to cross class barriers, to consider their audience, to see, respect, work with the women who create outside the art world—whether in suburban crafts guilds or in offices and factories or in community workshops. The current feminist passion for women's traditional arts, which influences a great many women artists, should make this road much easier, undess it too becomes another commercialized rip-off. Despite the very real class obstacles, I feel strongly that women are in a privileged position to satisfy the goal of an art which would communicate the needs of all classes and sexes to each other, and get rid ofthe we/they dichotomy to as great an extent as is possible in a capitalist framework. Our sex, our oppression and our female experience—our female culture, just being explored—offer access to all of us by these common threads.</p> </div> </body> <back> <p>Lucy R.

<head>AN APPLE</head> <p>Manuelo Manchik admires the apple before devouring it. He cups the thing in the palm of his hand, turning it this way and that; the light bounces off the curves of its golden skin. O golden delicious, you make a mouth water! The fruit is round and firm and fully packed; unlike the mealy banana, it will resist his teeth just a little. Again his mouth waters as he delays the coming pleasure. He cups the thing in the palm of one hand, stroking it with the other; it is smooth and cool beneath his fingers. O golden delicious, you do tempt a man! Yes there is no doubt, you were made to be eaten. He opens his mouth wide and chomps through to the core in a single bite. Two black seeds slither in a rill of juice down his chin.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="b"> <head>BREASTS</head> <p>At a gathering of talents, artistic and profane, MM had spotted across the crowded room his own dreamed-of Olympia, half-reclining on a fat settee. The exquisite naturalness of her <persName key="Édouard Manet" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q40599" cert="high" type="real">Manet</persName> pose enchanted him no less than her near nudity. Under her see-through blouse her breasts were classic. O wonder. O no wonder that they pushed out the silk (or was it cheap nylon?) of her blouse exactly like breasts; that to exploring hands (at other hours of course for now she was half-reclining naturally alone) they were as round and firm and full as round firm full breasts; and that the nipples which tipped these breasts resembled nothing so much as the nipples which tip such breasts. In short and in sum, her breasts were truly like breasts. But MM had no interest in the obvious. He was a man of imagination, of poetry even. The excesses of similitude multiplied by their exact number his pleasures. He saw what he saw: Olympia with breasts which were breasts and at the same time various other roundnesses not breasts. And roundness was all, preferable even to that commonplace of literature, ripeness. Only one fact was crucial and he had ascertained it, subtly brushing his fingers against her shoulders: she was not made of wax. So when MM opened his mouth wide one night days later and bit with gusto into the breast on the left, that same breast bled. Damn, he had erred in his distinctions! But Manuelo Manchik was not a man to hang fire. With a gesture of magnificent unconcern, he wiped his chin and continued eating.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="c"> <head>CHYME</head> <p>Olympia had accepted that name, accepted too the play of tongue and teeth, accepted even the discomfort of her body crushed beneath him when poing! she was punctured. Too late to cry foul! she fell, undone by mastication. Softened by saliva she travelled in mouthfuls through his gullet and into the fat sac of his stomach. There she lodges, divided against herself. </p><p>Fool, she chides herself, to have come to chyme!</p> <p>Her head is separated from her body. Her legs, each in one long piece, are severed from her crotch and from each other, Her two loose breasts bounce from wall to wall, free-floating, as his stomach contracts and dilates in digestion. Pressed against the locked pyloric door she is grateful at least that she will not be further fractured by the cleaving peristaltic actions of his intestine. There is no disguising the situation: she is split, sundered, she is not in one piece. If she does not want to sour in his belly (and why would she desire such a fate?) she must somehow (but how?) reverse the process herself. But herself is not. From deep inside Manuelo's stomach, she surveys the chaos of her members and thinks: I must pull myself together! </p> </div> <div type="letter" n="d"> <head>DREAM?</head> <p>Maybe it's all a dream, she reasons reasonably enough, and when I wake up I'll find myself me again, just me, no one's Olympia, in toto. And so she falls to sleep so she can fall awake. This is the dream she finds: she is standing in water being fucked in the ass by the shameless beak of a crane. His long legs pinion her hips. He wades and fishes, taking his time. It hurts. What can she do but submit? Her name is not Leda; the power is all his.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="e"> <head>ESCAPE</head> <p>She wakes up gagging with her left foot in her mouth. No use sucking on the toes, they're not sour balls, they won't dissolve or sweeten her palate. Her mouth is dry with sleep and anxiety; she could have suffocated during that nighttime shift. There is no escaping the fact now: she must escape! But how? She wags her head a few times to float the foot free as she ponders the ins and outs. The nearest exit is the rear. Can she deliver herself through there? MM is <pb facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_057.jpg"/> notoriously tight-assed. She experiments, jamming her foot in the door; MM jumps. Assured of the flexibility of that aperture, she glances upward to the other hole, further away but far less foul. Keeping her foot wedged in the crack she sticks a finger up his throat; MM gags. Both routes are open to her. Which out should she take?</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="f"> <head>FLATULENCE</head> <p>MM ejects a fart and holds his nose in indignation. The cream of the art world thins around him. Many noses are held. How could she, the bitch, upset him so? He excuses himself gracefully from the room, leaving his smell behind. Is he stuck with her forever? Must he pay with his immaculate reputation for one night's overindulgence? O she is lodged there in his gut, forcing him to take strong measures.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="g"> <head>GLUTTONY</head> <p>"I'd like to eat you up," he had said. She had been enthusiastic. Whose sin was it then? Definitely food for thought, his and hers.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="h"> <head>HIS AND HERS</head> <p>HIS: She tempted me. <lb/> HERS: He ate.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="i"> <head>INDIGESTION</head> <p>"I'm carrying her around. She weighs me down. Really, I'm not a free man anymore," Manuelo confided to his friend the doctor, picking his teeth with an indigestible sliver of fingernail. "You must get her out of your system," replied the learned doc. "May I prescribe a laxative?" </p> </div> <div type="letter" n="j"> <head>JUSTICE MORE OR LESS POETIC</head> <p>She hadn't cared who drove into her. He had had a full set. It was good sport yes. And what a ball! He had swung hard, lifted high and, rimming the cup first with a brilliant display of control, had dropped right in: hole in one, Manuelo Manchik was not the sort to putter around. Well, neither was she.</p> <p>"You're a real swinger," he complimented her.</p> <p>"Just par for the course," she replied, refering of course to her life.</p> <p>Now she was teed-off, finding herself in the trap. O she had been green in those green days, but she would lie in the roughage no longer. With a method to her madness she slices into his intestine with her teeth. MM howls then doubles over, squeezing her (according to plan) more closely together; his cramp adheres her. When he straightens up she delights to see the connections: her legs secured to her groin and her groin to her torso, o classic <persName key="Venus" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q47652">venus</persName> though still not Olympia for her breasts and arms are still somewhere adrift. And her head, that obstinate be-bumped ball, is lying slightly offcourse, planning the next shot. </p> </div> <div type="letter" n="k"> <head>KIDDING</head> <p>When she reached twenty-five, her psychiatrist had said (though gently): "All kidding aside, my dear, you are no longer a child prodigy." </p><p>She had run home crying to her mother, blurting the tragic news. "So? What are you going to do with yourself?" mother had asked, heart-to-heart.</p> <p>"I gotta grow up sometime, ma. He's right. So here's what: I'm gonna have a baby!" </p><p>"What? What?" disbelieving ma had hollered, flinging her daughter from her sacked-out breast. "I'm going to have a bastard?" "No, ma, no," she calmed her mother. "<emph>I'm</emph> gonna have the bastard."</p> <p>The child was born crying and one gulp of air later, died. The bereaved not yet a mother invited her psychiatrist to the funeral and told him then and there that they were quits. That was how he would remember her: standing gravely at the grave, dressed all in black, a grown-up color.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="l"> <head>LIKE</head> <p>"I like you," MM had said (as had others), thinking to flatter.</p> <p>"No you're not," she retorted almost at once, angry almost. "You're not like me at all."</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="m"> <head>MILK OF MAGNESIA</head> <p>He takes the prescribed dosage and waits.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="n"> <head>NO ANSWERS</head> <p>In the park, Abigale is lying on her belly, waiting as pre-arranged for her best friend, the putative Olympia. She pokes with a spring twig at the underside of a caterpillar, trying to hurry it out of its skin.</p> <p>"Where are your wings, caterpillar?" she asks.</p> <p>"And where was I before I was born?"</p> <p>"And where, sky, do you get off, looking down on me?"</p> <p>Everything is mute. The silence is its own question.</p> </div> <pb facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_058.jpg"/> <div type="letter" n="o"> <head>OSCILLATIONS</head> <p>Suddenly everything starts churning. Using all anchored organs for ballast, she holds herself together; he will not shake her up, will not fragment her. His belly bloats with gases, goes into a rumble. So! He is trying to purge himself by purging her. The rejection infuriates her. She will come out when she is good and ready, and she will use the exit of her choice. Tough shit, Manuelo! She braces herself against his spasms.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="p"> <head>P'S & Q'S</head> <p>"Mind them!" her mother had warned. But what were they? She had learned the alphabet thoroughly but the deeper meanings of p's and q's had eluded her. If she had gone further in her study of letters, would she have led a simpler life?</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="r"> <head>REFLECTION</head> <p>MM strains.</p> <p>O resists.</p> <p>The battle is in earnest. Some old words rise to the occasion. "The man who hates you and the woman who is hated are probably one and the same," her psychiatrist had suggested, maddening her (at the time) into silence.</p> <p>Was he speaking of suicide?</p> <p>Hers?</p> <p>The thought sobers her and sheds light. After all, it is almost spring out there. The crocuses are already beginning their day-open night-close ritual. She could if she chose walk outside without a coat, breathing sunlight. Someone, also without a coat, might be coming round the corner, fated to bump chests with her. Her mind too, she realizes, can turn corners. And certainly Abigale, her old friend, must be waiting for her in the park this very moment.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="s"> <head>SURE IS</head> <p>His stomach is storming around her with a vengeance. She holds on for dear life. O yes, it is so so dear, good old life. It is indeed of the essence, hers in particular. Her imagination has never yet failed her. She will live! Out of the darkness, the closet, the belly of this male whale. The way is lighted by divine coincidence as MM opens his mouth widely to expel a belch. The light rays down his throat, a sign. Her route has been decided. Really, there are possibilities in everything, even a belch, she concludes.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="t"> <head>TRANSLATION (AFTER <persName key="Rainer Maria Rilke" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q76483">RILKE</persName>)</head> <p>Manuelo has thrown caution to the winds. "Do something," he pleads. "I need help."</p> <p>"Yes," agrees the doctor, "you must change your life."</p> <p>O but it hurts! His eyes are blind with tears.</p> <p>Manuelo weeps with the effort to restrain them.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="u"> <head>UNITED SHE CAN</head> <p>He falls back into his chair, trying to relax, inadvertently giving her the room she needs to maneuver. She holds herself snugly in her own arms; they mate with their respective sockets, home at last. Now able to manipulate with her hands, the rest is easy. She catches her drifting breasts and fixes them onto her chest. She knows which is which, having observed in moments of self-criticism that the left is slightly larger than the right. It occurs to her at this juncture that nature is purposive in all plans. Nothing is very much like anything else, each thing is essentially itself and under no compulsion to be other. Goodbye then, Manuelo's Olympia! Goodbye velvet settee and languid pose! MM's ass presses down into the seat, squeezing her upward. Her body rises toward her head and miraculously naturally unites with it. He cannot keep her down. He does not want to. She is on her way.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="v"> <head>VOYAGING</head> <p>Still afraid that she will fall apart — these connections are so tenuous, so untested — she kicks her feet, gingerly at first, then with increasing vigor as she finds to her elation that they will move her. She paddles upward toward his heart. O the current there is strong; she struggles bravely; she falters, sucked into its vortex; she kicks, she flails and manages, through stratagems newly known to science, to bypass the whole throbbing mass. The worst is over. She catches her breath at his lungs and then, with a great final spurt, dives through his esophagus.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="w"> <head>WHOOPS!</head> <p>She spills out of his mouth.</p> <p>"Hi, Manuelo."</p> <p>"Olympia!"</p> <p>They stand gaping at each other, both of them messy with blood and other slime. She sets him straight at once. "My real name's Claire.

He looks at her in this new light as he scrubs her back. How could he not have noticed those pimples on her shoulders? Perhaps that is why he was unable to stomach her. But no, no, the mystery is more than skin deep.</p> <p>"Scrub harder, Manuelo."</p> <p>He does, marveling at the dead skin which peels off, flake by flake. How many layers are there? He stares into the skin, lost in ponderings beneath the surface and then, with a wild cry of exultation, realizes that he has found his calling. Dermatology will teach him the topography of the flesh. Through that mundane profession he will explore the twin mysteries of desire and disgust.</p> <p>"You're breaking the skin again!" shouts Claire.</p> <p>"Enough!"</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="y"> <head>YOU</head> <p>"You have helped me to find myself," they admit simultaneously and, with a tender embrace, part forever.</p> </div> <div type="letter" n="z"> <head>ZOON</head> <p>Shining in the sunlight which is shining too, she runs to the park. Abigale is asleep; a caterpillar is making a moustache on her upper lip. Claire picks it off and tosses it carelessly into the grass. It slithers away as Abigale wakes.</p> <p>"Where have you been?" drowsy A asks. Claire hesitates. What words could convey the absurdity, the enormity of her adventure? An attempt is necessary. She begins to stammer a reply but her stomach, miraculously to the rescue, speaks first: loudly it rumbles, fiercely it growls. Both women laugh. The noise suffices for response.</p> <p>Claire stretches out her hands to Abigale and, with a little tug, pulles her to her feet.</p> <p>"It's time for another beginning," Claire says.</p> <p>"It always was," Abigale grins.</p> <p>And off they go, old friends hand in hand, in search of apples.</p> </div> </body> <back> <div><p>Susan Yankowitz's first novel, <title ref="http://viaf.org/viaf/167148269718005230000">Silent Witness</title>, was published by Knopf in May.

Radical-feminists, while recognizing the identification of housework with our female nature, have proposed sharing this work with a man and leaving the home for outside work. Socialist-feminists, describing housework as precapitalist, have proclaimed that our goal should be toward "industrialization," which would liberate our time for more work—but in a factory, if not a collective kitchen. Liberal feminists have defined our problem as "lack of consciousness," describing women as dupes of Madison Avenue ad-men. Finally, there are those feminists who, much to capitalists' rejoicing, have glorified our forced labor in the home as the embodiment of the best human potentials: our capacity to nurture and care, our very capacity to love. One thing they all agree on is that women should not be paid for this work, because this presumably would institutionalize us in the home, and extend the control of the state to "the one area of freedom we have in our lives."</p> <p>Contrary to these criticisms, the Wages for Housework Committee's perspective is based on the fact that housework is <emph>already controlled and institutionalized</emph> (Mother's Day is nothing less than the celebration of this institutionalization!) <emph>precisely because this work is unwaged</emph>. Society is organized to force us into this job, and the fact that we don’t receive a wage for the work continuously undermines our power to refuse it.</p> <p>That housework is unwaged means first of all that it appears not as <emph>work</emph>, but as part of our female nature. Thus, when we refuse part of this work—as, for example, lesbian women do in refusing to provide sexual services to men—we are branded as perverts, as if we were breaking some law of nature. We are divided into "good“ and "bad" women depending on whether or not we do the housework and whether or not we do it for free. In this society to be a good woman — or just to be a woman—is to be a good servant at everyone's disposal 24 hours a day; it means accepting that this work should not be paid because it supposedly fulfills our nature, and thus contains its own reward.</p> <p>Housework is not just washing dishes, scrubbing floors, or raising babies. What we do at home is <emph>produce and reproduce workers</emph>: every day we create and restore the capacity of others (and ourselves) to work, and to be exploited. It is ironic that as houseworkers we are not included in the nation's labor force, for without this work the workforce would not exist. The lack of a wage obscures the indispensability of our work to the functioning of this society. Housework makes every other work possible. No car could be produced, no coal could be dug, no office could be run, if there were not women at home servicing and reproducing those who make the cars, those who dig the coal, those who run the offices. <emph>This is the sexual division of labor</emph>: workers make cars, and women make the workers who make the cars. And to make a worker is a much more time- and energy-consuming job than to make a car! Not only do we "reproduce“ them physically— cooking their dinners, doing the shopping (shopping is work, not consumption as some "feminists" would have us believe). We also service workers emotionally—taking the brunt of their tiredness and frustration day after day. And we service workers sexually—the Saturday night screw keeps them going for yet another week at the assembly line or desk.</p> <p>It appears that we freely donate all this work to our husbands and children out of our love for them. In reality we are working for the same bosses, who are getting two workers for the price of one. Our lives are governed by the same work schedule as those we serve. When we cook dinner or when we "make love" is determined by the factory time-clock. Not only the quantity, but also the quality of workers we reproduce is controlled. If they don't need many workers, we are sterilized; if they need more workers we are denied access to contraceptives and are forced to resort to backstreet butchers (the right to life is never claimed for women). Likewise, if we are on welfare or we tend to produce "troublemakers," we are again sterilized.</p> <p>In every case, our sexuality is continuously under control to make sure that we use it productively. Lesbianism and teenage sex are illegal, and rape in the family (or the battered wife) is not a crime since readily available<pb facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_107.jpg"/> money of our own that creates the battered wife or the closet lesbian and forces so many of us to remain in unwanted family situations. With money in our hands, we would have the power to walk out whenever we wanted. Men would certainly think twice before raising their hands to us if they knew that we could leave any minute, without the prospect of starving.</p> <p>Our wageless condition in the home is the material basis of our dependence on men. This weakness in the community, as wageless houseworkers, is ultimately the weakness of the entire class. Capitalism takes away from us in the community (through inflation—price hikes rent increases, fare increases, etc.) what we have gained through our power in the factory. Women pay a double price for this defeat. Higher prices mean an intensification of our work, since we are expected to absorb the cost of inflation with extra work.</p> <p>The struggle for wages for housework is a struggle for social power—for women first, but ultimately for the entire working class. In fact, by demanding wages for the work we already do, instead of demanding more work, we are posing the question of <emph>the immediate reappropriation of the wealth we have produced</emph>. Exploitation is the enforcement of unpaid labor the only source of capitalist profits. Thus to attack our wagelessness is to attack capitalism at its roots for capital is precisely the accumulated labor that has been robbed from workers generation after generation.</p> <p>In contrast, the strategy that has been offered to us by "feminists" and the left—the strategy to obtain more work-would only mean further enslavement to the present system. It is capital that poses work as the only natural destiny in our lives, not the working class, whose struggles are always directed toward gaining more money and less work. To pose the "right to work" as our road to liberation ignores that we are already working, and that housework does not wither away when we go out for a paid job. Our work at home simply intensifies: we do it at night when everybody is already asleep, or in the morning before everyone awakes or on weekends. Our wages remain low—and they quickly disappear in paying for day-care centers lunches, carfare, etc. Furthermore, with two jobs we have even less time to organize with other women. Unions have long accused women of being backward. But when did unions consider that we are not free to attend meetings after our second job is over because we must hurry to report back to our first one—picking up the kids at the day-care center or babysitter's getting to the supermarket before it closes, fixing dinner for the men who expect it to be ready when they come home from work?</p> <p>Another illusion is that to go "out to work" is to break our isolation and gain the possibility of a social life. Very often the isolation of a typing pool or a secretarial office matches our isolation in the home. We certainly aspire to a social life better than the one provided by an assembly line. But going out of the home is not much of a relief if we don’t have any money in our hands, or if we go out just for more work.</p> <p>We also reject the idea that sharing our exploitation in the home with a man can be a strategy for liberation. "Sharing the housework" is not an invention of the Women's Movement. Women have continuously tried to get men to share this work. Despite some victories, we have discovered that this battle also has many limitations. First, the man is not home most of the time. If he brings in the money, and we are economically dependent on him, we don't have the power to force him to do housework. In fact it is often more work for us to get the man to share the work than do it ourselves. Most importantly, this strategy confines us to an individual struggle which does not give us the power (or the protection) of a mass struggle. <emph>And it assumes that every woman has (or wants) a man with whom to share the work.</emph></p> <p>As for a possible rationalization of house work, we must immediately say that we are not interested in making our work more efficient or more productive for capital. We are interested in reducing our work, and ultimately refusing it altogether. But as long as we work in the home for nothing, no one really cares how long or how hard we work. For capital only introduces advanced technology to cut its costs of production after wage gains by the working class. Only if we make our work cost (i.e. only if we make it uneconomical) will capital "discover“ the technology to reduce it. At present, we often have to go out for a second shift of work to afford the dishwasher that should cut down our housework!</p> <p>Who will pay for this work?</p> <p>We demand wages for housework from the government for two major reasons. First, every sector of the economy benefits from our work we don’t work for one boss, we work for all the bosses. Consequently we demand the money from the state. Second, the government already is our boss. In every country the government is responsible for guaranteeing an adequate labor force to industry. This means that the government directly regulates and controls our work through the family, world population control, immigration laws, and finally by entering the community whenever we refuse to perform our work.</p> <p>The question "who will pay?" is usually posed so as to subvert the cause. It is assumed that the government is broke, and that our demand will only divide the working class by forcing the government to tax other workers to pay us a wage. In reality, by getting more power for ourselves, we will be giving more power not only to men (power not over us but with respect to their bosses) but to every sector (the young, the elderly, and the wageless in general). We will <pb facs="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BucknellDSC/heresies/main/issue01/images/01_108.jpg"/> begin to break the power relations which so far have kept us divided. Through a united working class we can force the government to tax the corporations, not other workers.</p> <p>A posture of defeat also ignores the struggles women have made against housework and what we have been able to win in relation to this work. It is no accident that after the massive struggles welfare mothers waged in the 1960s for more money from the government—the first money we have won for housework—the number of female-headed families has dramatically increased (doubling every decade) along with the number of divorces, particularly among women with children, and the number of young women who have been able to set up independent households. This is not to glorify welfare. Welfare does not even begin to pay for all our work—we need much more and we need it for all of us. But it is to recognize how even a little money has begun to break down some of the most powerful mechanisms of discipline which traditionally have kept us in line.</p></div> </body> <back> <div><p>Pat Sweeney is an active member of the Wages For House work Committee (288-8 8th Street, Brooklyn, N.Y. 11215) and one of the founders of the Nassau County Womens Liberation Center.</p></div> </back> </text> </TEI>
