Who is he?
He is Poe's friend, living in the House of Usher.
He said, "I am not a ravon, but one of the penalties of being famous is the loss of
privacy."
To tell the truth, he lived in the house for a few months.
Though he wanted to stay with Poe, Poe drank too much day and night.
Finally he said goodby to Poe.
Poe missed him.

Edgar Allan Poe(1809-1849) is one of the first detective-story writers and also a
great poet.
Poe's life was, however, miserable and tragic.
He lost his parents before he was only three.

If you should have a chance of viewing Poe's sketchbook, you may find THIS BLACK
BIRD on it.
I wish I could get the sketchbook.
