Early 20th c. School Notes on Tennyson

Across two pages of wide-ruled paper, the student writes:

It was then that he wrote “The Charge Of The Light Brigade”, and “The Death of The Duke Of Wellington”. When he had married he want to live on the Isle of Whight. Then his children came to make him happy. He died at the age of 81 at Aldworth in England. The whole world mourned the death of one of the greatest poets in the world.

And then, captioning a paste-in from Tennyson’s Home, Freshwater, Isle of Wight. The picture is copyright 1909, Eugene A. Perry, Boston Edition.

This is Farringford, the home Tennyson was so fond of.
