Inconvenience: Genuine Distress

This Inconvenience writer has used the 1897 edition of Baily's Magazine of Sports and Pastimes to create this missive.This source text and style appear throughout several late 19th- and early 20th-century inconveniences, and many early Convenience scholars proposed that this particular writer was male.These Victorian and Edwardian convenience scholars assumed that the forceful language in this source text, and emphasized by this writer, could only have been chosen by a man.Gendered assumptions have been shown to be clearly false in later convenience scholarship.As more of [his] Inconveniences are published online, readers may make their own assessments concerning the gender of the writer.

Genuine Distress:

Mischief has been the instrument.

Deep feeling tears through the psyche

using sorrow and iron determination.
