Hello to all you Lewis Carroll experts! I am a librarian in Washington DC who has been asked to find a scene that a patron remembers as being in either...
Hi - probably the poem "You are old, Father William", where the son says to the father "And yet you incessantly stand on your head - do you think at your age...
Hi, One possibility is the following in Chapter 1 of AAIW: Presently she began again. "I wonder if I shall fall right through the earth! How funny it'll seem...
Thank you all for your suggestions. From another list that I queried, I found that the upside-down scene that my library patron swore was in one of the books ...
To all my friends in the Carroll Society, and in England - It is hard to express what so many of us over here in New Zealand feel after the terrible events of...
My fiancee could have been killed if had caught the next train yesterday,as he does quite often...and not only that but the bus exploded right outside his...
Dear friends in UK and in the rest of this world, I can't find words enough
to express my grief. There are someone else's that fit better. Adele No man is an...
Thank you Adele for reminding us of John Donne's words, and to Kate for reminding us how deep our ties to the "mother ship", and to Natasha for sharing your...
We're okay although one of our daughters was evacuated from a train in the area after half an hour stuck underground. After this, she went to other tube...
Jenny, Thank you. Your reflections very much mirror mine. I am currently in New Zealand - probably one of the safest places in the world at the moment (more...
... Oh, dear Jenny, I think you have a right to be upset! I was so relieved to hear that you were safe. And hearing about your daughter's escape brought tears...
Just to say how fully I endorse what both John and Jenny have said. What happened in London was terrible for those involved and a shock to all. My oldest son...

Thanks Karoline, John, Jenny, Anne, Natasha. . . I want to add something too - the time seems right. This is a copy of an article in www.arohanui.com which i...
Kate, whilst I am pleased that people I know have not been caught up in these murders in London this article is at the best simplistic propaganda. I feel...
... Thank you, Karoline and Kate for your messages. And also to Keith, as we all have opinions that do remind us that, at least in the English-speaking...

Peter, you have obviously not followed my postings in the past so do not know my attitudes - claiming that I support war, torture etc. is a spurious argument ...
Dear Kate, many thanks for your article. I've visited the website too and think it's
very welldone. The only power we still have got is speech, words. If you...
"And would you have races of different sizes communicate with one another?" I enquired. "Would they make war on one another, for instance, or enter into...
I disagree. All it shows is why wars occur. People fail to respect the rules and each other. It should be obvious to anyone with half a brain that discussing...
The 'Looking for Lewis Carroll' website was recently contacted by a lady who has a red leather-bound volume of 'Wonderland' that has the signature 'C L...
Mike, unusual to just have C.L.Dodgson on it. Any idea of the supposed owner, original or current. I'll have a look at the images please. Keith ... From:...
Does anyone have a copy of Wakeling's text wherein he advocates Southey as a candidate for being Hexham? Does anyone know if there is any textual or factual...

Karoline, I was not aware that Edward Wakeling ever suggested that Hexham was based upon Southey. However, if he did and he had proof then I am sure you would...
