Thomas Higginson was an American minister, author, abolitionist, and soldier. During the Civil War, he served as colonel of the 1st South Carolina Volunteers, the first federally authorized African-American regiment. Higginson spent much of his life devoted to the causes surrounding freed slaves, women and others needing help. Malbone is a romance set in a small New England town with a bit of humor provided by the charming Aunt Jane. An excerpt reads, "Like most of the statelier houses in that region of Oldport, this abode had its rumors of a ghost and of secret chambers. The ghost had never been properly lionized nor laid, for Aunt Jane, the neatest of housekeepers, had discouraged all silly explorations, had at once required all barred windows to be opened, all superfluous partitions to be taken down, and several highly eligible dark-closets to be nailed up. If there was anything she hated, it was nooks and odd corners. Yet there had been times that year, when the household would have been glad to find a few more such hiding-places; for during the first few weeks the house had been crammed with guests so closely that the very mice had been ill-accommodated and obliged to sit up all night, which had caused them much discomfort and many audible disagreements."
