Summary "Graham's Magazine, Vol. XIX, No. 5, November 1841" is a periodical magazine containing an eclectic mix of fiction, poetry, and various articles, written in the early 19th century. This edition features a number of stories including "The Pet Lamb" by Alexander A. Irvine and "The Ghost of Chew’s Wall" by Oliver Oldfellow, along with reviews and commentary on contemporary literature and culture. The magazine offers readers insights into the literary tastes and social contexts of the time, showcasing the blend of entertainment and commentary characteristic of such publications. The opening of this edition begins with a table of contents that highlights the diverse range of writings, from poignant poetry to thrilling tales of ghosts and romance. The initial poem, "The Pet Lamb," introduces a tender and innocent scene between a young girl and her pet lamb, ultimately darkened by the cruelty of a hunter, revealing themes of love, loss, and youthful grief. In contrast, "The Ghost of Chew’s Wall" sets the stage for a legend filled with humor and superstition, capturing the quaint and peculiar essence of a German-American community facing the haunting presence of a ghost. Together, these stories offer a glimpse into the sentimental and adventurous spirit that was prevalent during this period, catering to a wide array of readers.
