Saturday, 6 September 2014. The Rathfriland area breathes Brontë. Marina Saegerman (member of the Brussels Brontë Group) writes about her visit to Patrick Brontë's homeland:. The day of the visit was to be Saturday 26 July 2014. On our way back home from Boyle to Dun Laoghaire (Co.

A recent article in the cooking supplement of last Saturday's Guardian (7 March) by Henry Jeffreys. Was about laudanum, not as an ingredient for your next pudding, I must add. Confessions of an English Opium-Eater. I am now wondering how many others in nineteenth century Haworth would have bought laudanum...
