Arlo Bates
Arlo Bates was an American author, editor, and professor, known for his work in the literary world during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He wrote several novels, including "The Pagans" (1884), "The Philistines" (1889), and "The Puritans" (1899), which were well-regarded for their exploration of society and individual morality. Bates also served as the editor of the Boston-based "Sunday Courier" and contributed to numerous literary publications. In addition to his writing career, he was a professor of English literature at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) from 1900 to 1915.

SOME SPEECH OF MARRIAGE. Measure for Measure, v—i. A fine, drizzling rain was striking against the windows of a cosy third floor sitting-room, obscuring what in pleasant weather was a fine distant view of the Charles river. The apartment was evidently that of a woman, as numerous details of arrangement and articles of feminine use suggested; and quite as evidently it was the home of a person of...
