Bon-Bon (short story) Aristophanes, Catullus, Hippocrates, Quintilian and François Marie Arouet (the real name of Voltaire). As Bon-Bon is offering his own soul, the Devil sneezes, referring to an earlier moment in the story when the Devil says that men dispel bad ideas by sneezing. An editorial in the "Philadelphia Saturday Courier" thanked Poe for submitting the stories. The writer, presumably the editor, Lambert A. Wilmer, added that "we have read these tales, every syllable, with the greatest pleasure, and for originality, richness of imagery and purity of the style, few American authors in our opinion have produced any thing superior". A reviewer
Boltwood (All-England cricketer, 1778) Boltwood (All-England cricketer, 1778) Boltwood (first name and dates unknown) was an English first-class cricketer who made a single known appearance for All-England against Chertsey at Laleham Burway on 10–11 September 1778. Boltwood scored 34 runs with a highest score of 27. Boltwood may have played in the return match at the Artillery Ground on 15 September, but no details of that match have survived. As Boltwood had established his reputation by 1778, he must have been active for some years previously. Very few players were mentioned by name in contemporary reports and there are no other references to Boltwood.
