    I heard about Kate Cumming at a Celtic festival in Virginia where Irish singer and songwriter Jed Marum (SOUL OF A WANDERER) told her story, talked about her diary and sang two beautiful songs that her life inspired him to write. I knew I had to read the book, and I was NOT disappointed! Kate's devotion to her adopted homeland and her deep faith are inspiring. Her thoughts and feelings about the war and her battle front experience evolve over the 3 years of the diary - and they are eloquently expressed in its pages. This book is a treasure! Great Reference!
    This book is the masterfully written journal of Kate Cumming. Miss Cumming was a confederate
    nurse during the Civil War. Like Clara Barton in the north, Kate cares for hundreds of the suffering soldiers. Miss Cumming works at Corinth, Mississippi toward the start of the book. Here at Corinth men are brought in every day from the bloody battlefield of Shiloh. She works in Chattanooga for a few months. Also she did her duty as a nurse in Mobile, Alabama(her hometown) Kate relates in her flowing writing the many thoughts that ran through her mind during those long, hard, years. She tells of how much faith in God these men had. This really touched me. Kate said, while speaking of the men's faith, that she had not met one man in her hospital that did not know the Lord. This is quite a statement! To think of all that these men went through at Shiloh, Stone's River, and so many others! I would highly recommend this book because it reveals the true history from a woman who lived at the time and was a witness to these events in our country's history.

    • Newcomb, Simon (1835-1909) - in 1899 published a comprehensive table of the motion of the moon. He was a prolific writer who in an early paper, objected to the theory that the asteroid belt was formed by the breakup of a planet between Mars and Jupiter.
      Nicholson, Seth Barnes (1891-1963) - American astronomer who took careful measurements of temperatures of the moon. The results led to the theory that the moon was covered with a thin layer of dust, acting as an insulator. He also discovered four new moons of Jupiter.

    BOOKS NOTED ON HOWARD PAYNE ACCESSIONS LIST BUT PROBABLY NOT PART OF HOWARD'S LIBRARY
    compiled by Rusty Burke BACK TO REH BOOKSHELF HOMEPAGE As discussed in the Introduction, it appears that the cataloging of the Robert E. Howard Memorial Collection at Howard Payne College in the summer of 1936 was occasionally interrupted to note other library acquisitions. In particular, it seems unlikely that Howard would have owned books on pedagogical methods. While it is possible that an author would possess, as references, works on nature, Howard's lack of expressed interest in the subject apparently led Glenn Lord and Steve Eng to omit these works from their listings, and leads me to include them here. And works of a specifically religious nature are included here: Howard Payne is a Baptist school. It should be noted that all of these titles were included in the listing in Paperback Quarterly , the first listing from the Howard Payne accessions list.
