Vaguely sick so randomly browsing Wikipedia and so I discovered the WASPiest Boston Brahmin ever, Rev. Paul Revere Frothingham. I am not sure who wrote this mini-biography (it reads like a contemporary obituary?), but it's hilarious, e.g. "He rejoiced to live in a creative and prophetic time, and in manly, rational, wholesome fashion he dedicated his life to certain compelling ideals."
