RICE, JAMES (1843-1882)

This article appears in Volume V23, Page 291 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: RHY-RON
RICE, JAMES (1843-1882) , English novelist, was born at Northampton on the 26th of September 1843. Educated at Queens' College,
Cambridge
 , where he graduated in law in 1867, he was called to the bar at Lincoln's Inn in 1871. In the meantime (1868) he had bought Once a
Week
 , which proved a losing venture for him, but which brought him into
touch
  with Walter Besant, a contributor [see Besant's preface to the Library Edition (1887) of Ready-money Mortiboy]. There ensued a close friendship and a literary partnership between the two men which lasted ten years until Rice's death, and resulted in a large number of successful novels. The first of them, published anonymously, Rice being responsible for the central figure and the leading situation, was Ready-money Mortiboy (1782), dramatized by them later and unsuccessfully produced at the Court Theatre in 1874. In rapid succession followed My Little Girl (1873); With Harp and Crown (1874); This Son of
Vulcan
  (1876); The Golden Butterfly (1876), the most popular of their
joint
  productions; The Monks of Thelema (1878); By Celia's
Arbour
  (1878); The Seamy Side (188o) ; The Chaplain of the
Fleet
  (1881); Sir Richard Whittington (1881), and a large number of short stories, some of them reprinted in The Case of Mr Lucraft, &c. (1876), 'Twas in Trafalgar's Bay, &c. (1879), and The Ten Years'
Tenant
 , &c. (1881).
James Rice died at Redhill on the 26th of April 1882.
