Excerpt from The Fate of a Fairy I was born November 4, 1842, in New Lentern, Nottingham, England, my parents being William and Elizabeth Elliott. My father was one of the patentees and manufacturers of the famous Nottingham lace curtains. We belonged to the Quaker sect, and the house I was born in was the original Fox homestead, it having been occupied in continuous time for over three hundred years. I had five brothers - William, Charles, Isaac, Henry and Frank - who all entered the British navy as midshipmen, afterward becoming officers of higher rank. I had also three sisters - Eliza, Lydia and Betsy Ann. My sister Betsy Ann was burned to death when very young, and my sister Lydia got married, I going to live with her afterward. One chilly evening in the beginning of November, in the year 1849, I stood, a little fair-haired girl dressed in the English style of low-necked dress with short sleeves, looking at a string of covered wagons belonging to a tribe of gypsies that were looking for a place to camp.

Excerpt from The Old-Fashioned Fairy Book And now, mamma, until your tea is ready, we know what you must do, said the children, in a breath. Tell us a story - a real, truly fairy tale, about a giant and a dwarf, lots and lots of fairies, a prince and a beautiful princess with hair to her very feet, a Champion with a magic sword, a dragon-chariot, a witch dressed in Snake skin - and, if you can, an ogre. Don't punish anybody but the witch and the ogre; and please don't have any moral, only let everybody 'live in peace and die in a pot of grease, ' at the end of it.
