About Thomas Cooke Middleton, the Author: He was the tenth president of Villanova College, from 1876 to 1878, as well as first president of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, an organization he helped to found in 1884. ...Correspondence with Maria Daly Shea, who contributed many historical records to the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, is viewable in the librarys Lloyd Collection.

By TOM MIDDLETON

LEGENDS of LONGDENDALE

Being a Series of Tales
Founded upon the Folk-lore of Longdendale
Valley and its Neighbourhood.

BY
THOMAS MIDDLETON,
Author of Annals of Hyde, Old Godley, etc., etc.

Should you ask me whence these stories?

Whence these Legends and Traditions?

*******

I should answer, I should tell you,

I repeat them as I heard them

From the lips of Nawadaha,

The musician, the sweet singer.

Should you ask where Nawadaha

Found these songs so wild and wayward,

Found these legends and traditions,

I should answer, I should tell you,

In the birds nest of the forest.

*******

All the wild fowl sang them to him,

In the moorlands and the fenlands,

In the melancholy marshes.

*******

In the Vale of Tawasentha,

In the green and silent valley.(Longfellow).
