C.A. Bristed (1820-1874) was a favored grandson of John Jacob Astor and was educated at Yale and Trinity College, Cambridge. He was a classicist and philologist by training but became a critic and joumalist (although his wealth madę work unnecessary).

In 1846, Poe was less evident on the literary scene due to a minor scandal over his correspondence with Mrs. Frances S.
