 | The Lowells, a prominent Boston family, affectionately named this estate Sevenels for the fact that there were 7 members in their family. |
| Lowell was also involved in the execution of Italian anarchists Sacco and Vanzetti, which many later observers have seen as a miscarriage of justice. |
| Lowell opposed Brandeis despite the fact that he was regarded as one of the most brilliant legal minds in the nation, having graduated from Harvard Law School with the strongest academic record in the school's history and having been instrumental in the founding of the Harvard Law Review. |
| Amy Lowell's Life and Career (2112 words) |
| Augustus Lowell was a businessman, civic leader, and horticulturalist, Katherine Lowell an accomplished musician and linguist. |
| Lowell enjoyed writing, and two stories she wrote during this time were printed in Dream Drops; or, Stories from Fairyland (1887), by a "Dreamer." The volume was published privately by her mother, who also contributed material, and the proceeds were donated to the Perkins Institute for the Blind. |
| Lowell's lectures on the "new poetry" of imagism and free verse drew large crowds, and she was so persuasive that the public began accepting her literary judgments "as nothing less than gospel" (Heymann, p.214). |
