...shipyards. The father of one child, he lived a politically uneventful life with his wife Lily, who happens to be a Catholic. Two of their relatives were also stained by mixed marriages. That, apparently, was more than enough to make Hamilton and the rest of his family suspect...
...students that he was reconsidering his noncommittal stance on the Democratic nomination for the presidency in 1976. As word of the U.P.I, "exclusive" spread, Kennedy and his office staff were besieged by reporters asking what was up. The answer was simple: U.P.I, had been victimized by a hoax.

Too often, this kind of source-tagging degenerates into a check-list of things to remember for orals--it is probably unnecessary to bring Sir Clyomon and Sir Clamydes twice into a brief discussion of Cymbeline. I suspect this approach is not the fault of the authors; the essays follow a general pattern closely enough to indicate that the publisher had unity of method in mind. Houghton-Mifflin chose to take the safe, easy approach; and the essays will save many freshmen from silly mistakes. If they...
