WARE, KATHARINE AUGUSTA,

Daughter of Dr. Rhodes, of Quincy, Massachusetts, was born in 1797. In 1819, she married Charles A. Ware, of the navy. She is principally known as a poetical contributor to periodicals. She also edited, for a year or two, a magazine called "The Bower of Taste," published at Boston. She came to Europe, in 1839, and died at Paris, in 1843. A collection of her poems was published in London, not long before her death.
