<p><span></span><span>Later, while she was living in Grand Rapids, Michigan in 1883, Rose was awarded an honorary M.A. degree from Hillsdale College.

Description
An account of the resource
<span>Artist and inventor Carrie M. Shoaff was born in Huntington, IN on April 2, 1849. <br /><br />By 1880, she and her husband Urias Shoaff were living in Fort Wayne, IN. In 1884, she exhibited three of her paintings in Keil's bookstore in Fort Wayne. <em>The Fort Wayne Gazette</em> of July 6, 1884 published anarticle about them, giving details about the paintings and praising Mrs. Shoaff's work as being "in every way worthy of notice."<br /><br /> On Thursday, January 10, 1895, <em>The Fort Wayne Weekly Gazette</em> published an article, "Eminent Women. The Part They Are Taking in the World's Affairs," about the <em>A Woman of the Century</em> book and focusing on Carrie M. Shoaff. Speaking of Carrie, it noted: <br /><br />"Among the collection appears a finely executed photogravure and a biographical sketch of a well-known Fort Wayne artist and inventor, Mrs. Carrie M. Shoaff. It tells in detail of the lady's success in the invention of a method of inventing imitation limoges ware and the demand that has everywhere been created for the product. Our own people are well aware of the handsome offers that have been made the artist to remove to the east and establish a studio, yet her interest in her home where were the scenes of her disappointments and her final triumph have overbalanced all, and she continues her work here. <br /><br />Not only in this field has Mrs. Shoaff been successful, but as a writer the lady possesses much ability. Many of the productions of her pen have delighted GAZETTE readers and all have reflected much credit upon her skill and ability. Many articles are written over a nom-de-plume while others are unsighed. All bear the unmistakable imprint of genius. It is a pleasure to chronicle the success of such persons, because it is deserved, and the GAZETTE sincerely congratulates Mrs. Shoaff and trusts that the future may hae still greater achievements and victories in store for her."<br /><br /><em>A Woman of the Centur</em>y noted that Mrs. Shoaff had established an art school in Fort Wayne and was teaching many women about limoge work. She continued that work for several years, as Carrie is listed in the 1900 Federal Census as living on Columbia Avenue in Fort Wayne with her husband Urias and as being an Art Teacher. <br /><br />On April 20, 1917, the <em>Fort Wayne News</em> published Carrie's letter to the editor about the death of her friend S. B. McManus, a poet and "the leading spirit of the 'Bohemian Club.'"<br /><br />She passed away in Fort Wayne on March 15, 1929.</span>

Description
An account of the resource
<p>Mrs. Emily Thornton Charles was a prodigious author, poet, journalist and editor. Emily, born in Lafayette, Indiana on March 21st, 1845, liked to write in rhyme as a child and was recognized for her writing skills and her ease at expressing herself. <br /><br />She attended the free schools of Indianapolis and at the age of sixteen she became a teacher. However, she did not begin publishing until the death of her husband, Daniel B. Charles, a well-known business man in Indianapolis. Mrs. Charles was left a widow at twenty-four years of age, in 1874. At that time she was in poor health. As the provider for two children, she realized she needed a career and discovered she could convert her facility with writing into a successful career in newspapers.</p>
<p>From there she went on in 1876 to publish her first work <em>Hawthorne Blossoms</em>, in Philadelphia. She wrote under the name Emily Thornton and under the nom de plume: Hawthorne. She has the distinction of establishing and operating "The National Veteran" in Washington, D.C. Due to her absorption in her work in 1883, she became overwrought and was confined to her bed. Not one to be idle, Emily Thornton Charles used this time to revise and edit her poetry. The result was <em>Lyrical Poems</em> (Philadelphia, 1886) a 300-page book that established her as a national poet. At the same time she became a popular lecturer/public speaker, addressing large gatherings, including the National Women's Suffrage Convention with her poetical address "Women's Sphere". Her oratory was such that in 1893, she was selected as a speaker in the World's Columbian Exposition.</p>
<p>Emily was a member of the National Women's Press Association, The Grand Army of the Republic and Order of the Eastern Star.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p><span>Alice Williams Brotherton was born in Cambridge, Indiana on April 4, 1848. Her </span><em>A Woman of the Century</em><span> profile notes the important roles that being raised in a home with books and a mother who encouraged writing played in setting Alice on the road to a writing career. In addition to being a prolific writer, Alice also devoted much time to being a mother and wife.</span><br /><br /><span>One of her passions was her work with women's clubs. In 1910, </span><em>The Guthrie Daily Leader</em><span> </span><a href="http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn86063952/1910-11-21/ed-1/seq-2/#date1=1789&sort=date&rows=20&words=Alice+Brotherton+Williams&searchType=basic&sequence=0&index=14&state=&date2=1924&proxtext=Alice+Williams+Brotherton&y=0&x=0&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=3" target="_blank" rel="noopener">commented</a><span> on Alice's club work, noted her husband's reaction to hearing about it, and praised her writing:</span><br /><br /><span><strong>"Has A Thoughtful Husband</strong>. </span></p>
<p><span>Mrs. Alice Williams Brotherton, who is prominent as a club woman in Cincinnati, says that her husband declared that he was willing to hear clubs talked three times a day at meals, but he drew the line at curtain lectures on the subject. Mrs. Brotherton is a successful writer and has made quite a reputation as a poet."</span><br /><br /><span>Alice's work was published in periodicals such as </span><em>Aldine</em><span>, </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/23" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Atlantic Monthly</em></a><span>, </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/31"><em>Century</em></a><span>, </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/22" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Independent</em></a><span>, </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/121" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Magazine of Poetry</em></a><span>, </span><em>New England Magazine</em><span>, </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/32" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Scribner's Monthly</em></a><span>, and </span><em>St. Nicholas</em><span>.</span></p>
