Rose Hartwick Thorpe (July 18, 1850 – July 19, 1939), American poet and writer, remembered largely for a single narrative poem, ''Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight,'' which gained national popularity. She was born in Mishawaka, Indiana and died in San Diego, California. Thorpe wrote ''Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight'', while living in Litchfield, Michigan, a small rural town in Hillsdale County. A bell in the center of the town commemorates the poem and Thorpe's time spent in the town. Litchfield adopted the title of the poem as a symbol, having fire trucks and city website show the symbol of a bell reading "Curfew Shall Not Ring Tonight." ==External links== * * * (Link to Full Text and Illustrations of Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight. ) Public Domain, High resolution images from the book, along with the full text of the poem.
