Jennifer Ebeling

26, 1893
Winifred Welles, American , is born.

In her dark , “Miss Calkins & the ,” a woman kills a while blackberry-picking.

"So far from home, so close to harm,
The 's thoughts, though stiff with fears,
Recalled the basket on her arm
& that it held her shears."

Miss Calkins keeps the murder a secret & the ends:

"Where jellies glistened, glassed & clear,
W/ -gold & -flame
No somber gleamed that year."
