Henry William Sydney Porter - the rolling stone of Austin by Jacci Howard Bear P erhaps you've heard Austin described as The City of the Violet Crown . Ever wonder why? Writer William Sydney Porter gets the credit for giving us that name way back in 1894. It appeared in a political humor story Tictocq: The Great French Detective, in Austin Chapter 2 begins: The drawing-rooms of one of the most magnificent private residences in Austin are a blaze of lights. Carriages line the streets in front, and from gate to doorway is spread a velvet carpet, on which the delicate feet of the guests may tread. The occasion is the entrée into society of one of the fairest buds in the City of the Violet Crown. The rooms are filled with the culture, the beauty, the youth and fashion of society. Austin society is acknowledged to be the wittiest, the most select, and the highest bred to be found southwest of Kansas City.

Henry set the stage for his characters immediately in a tightly-constructed plot, then he moved quickly from introduction to surprise ending. In one of his most popular tales, The Gift of the Magi , a story about true love and the true spirit of giving . O. Henry used a folksy narrator to tell the tale of Della and Jim Young.

In 1898 an unexplained shortage in the Austin bank was charged to him. Although many people believed him innocent, he fled to the Honduras but returned to be with his wife, who was fatally ill. He eventually served three years in prison, where he first started writing short stories. Upon his release he settled in New York City and became a highly successful and prolific contributor to various magazines. His short, simple stories are noted for their careful plotting, ironic coincidences, and surprise endings. Although his stories have been criticized as shallow and contrived, O. Henry did catch the color and movement of the city and evidenced a genuine sympathy for ordinary people. His approximately 300 stories are collected in Cabbages and Kings The Four Million The Voice of the City Options (1909), and others.

Story Home A.T.T. Classifieds Adopt-Pets.Com ... Auctions Gift of the Magi by O. Henry O.Henry (William Sidney Porter), was born September 11, 1862 in North Carolina, where he spent his childhood. His only formal education was received at the school of his Aunt Lina, where he developed a lifelong love of books. In his uncle's pharmacy, he became a licensed pharmacist and was also known for his sketches and cartoons of the townspeople of Greensboro. At the age of twenty, Porter came to Texas primarily for health reasons, and worked on a sheep ranch and lived with the family of Richard M. Hall, whose family had close ties with the Porter family back in North Carolina. It was here that Porter gained a knowledge for ranch life that he later described in many of his short stories.
