Andover, Hampshire
Andover ( ) is a town in the English county of Hampshire. The town is on the River Anton, a major tributary of the Test, and is situated alongside the major A303 trunk road at the eastern end of Salisbury Plain, west of the town of Basingstoke, both major rail stops. It is NNW of the city of Winchester, north of the city of Southampton and WSW of London. Andover is twinned with the towns of Redon in France, Goch in Germany, and Andover, Massachusetts in the United States. History Early history Andover's name is recorded in Old English in 955 as ''Andeferas'', and is thought to be of Celtic origin: compare Welsh ''onn dwfr'' = "ash (tree) water". The first mention in history is in 950 when King Edred is recorded as having built a royal hunting lodge there.

The Sunday People People
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things already mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with pronouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of pronoun ''thee'') when followed by a v ...

The Fate Of Fenella
''The Fate of Fenella'' was an experiment in consecutive novel writing inspired by J. S. Wood and published in his magazine ''The Gentlewoman'' in twenty-four parts between 1891 and 1892. When first published in book form its title was ''The Fate of Fenella: by Twenty-four Authors''. Description The novel first appeared as a twenty-four part serial in J. S. Wood's weekly magazine, ''The Gentlewoman'', in 1891 and 1892. Each of the authors wrote one chapter and passed the novel on to the next person in line. The odd-numbered chapters were written by women, and the even-numbered chapters by men, thus alternating in developing the narrative – although one of the men in the list, "Frank Danby", was in fact a woman. Authors included Bram Stoker, Mrs. Trollope and Arthur Conan Doyle. The completed work was republished as a three-volume novel by Hutchinson & Co. of London in May 1892, with a review noting the absence of a controlling mind.
