Henry Armitt Brown : ウィキペディア英語版 | Henry Armitt Brown Henry Armitt Brown (December 1, 1844 – August 21, 1878) was an American author and orator. Brown was born in Philadelphia, December 1, 1844, the second son of Frederick and Charlotte A. (Hoppin) Brown. He graduated from Yale College in 1865. He spent a year after graduating at the Columbia College Law School, New York City. After travels abroad, he resumed the study of the law in the office of Daniel Dougherty, Esq., of Philadelphia, and was admitted to the bar of that city in December, 1869. He was attracted to literature, and in spite of success in his profession, he made little effort to increase his practice. He wrote extensively for current periodicals, and began to be widely known as a public speaker. An oration delivered in Philadelphia on the 100th anniversary of the assembling of the Continental Congress of 1774 was followed by a succession of public addresses, especially in connection with the centennial celebrations of revolutionary events. It was after a long day at Valley Forge, on June 19, 1878, where he had delivered an oration, that he returned to Philadelphia to complete his preparation for a similar engagement at Monmouth. His illness gradually developed into typhoid fever. About the first of August he rallied, and seemed likely to recover; but successive relapses ensued, and he died on the 21st of that month at the age of 34. He was married, Dec. 7, 1871, to Miss Josephine L., daughter of Mr. John Baker, of Philadelphia, who survived him with his only child, a daughter. ==References==
