Poe was taken in by John and Frances Allan, of Richmond, Virginia, but they never formally adopted him.

Poe was then taken into the home of John Allan, a successful Scottish merchant in Richmond, Virginia, who dealt in a variety of goods including tobacco, cloth, wheat, tombstones, and slaves.

John Allan alternately spoiled and aggressively disciplined his foster son.

Poe attended the grammar school in Irvine, Scotland ( where John Allan was born ) for a short period in 1815, before rejoining the family in London in 1816.

In March 1825, John Allan's uncle and business benefactor William Galt, said to be one of the wealthiest men in Richmond, died and left Allan several acres of real estate.

Howard would only allow Poe to be discharged if he reconciled with John Allan and wrote a letter to Allan, who was unsympathetic.

Perhaps softened by his wife's death, John Allan agreed to support Poe's attempt to be discharged in order to receive an appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point.

In October 1830, John Allan married his second wife, Louisa Patterson.

Guilt is a main theme in John Steinbeck's East of Eden, Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, Tennessee Williams ' A Streetcar Named Desire, William Shakespeare's play Macbeth, Edgar Allan Poe's " The Tell-Tale Heart " and " The Black Cat ", and many other works of literature.

The problem lay in that Allan and Sir John A. Macdonald highly, and secretly, were in cahoots with American financiers such as George W. McMullen and Jay Cooke, men who were deeply interested in the rival American undertaking, the Northern Pacific Railroad.

Perhaps even more damaging to Macdonald was when the Liberals discovered a telegram, through a former employee of Sir Hugh Allan, which had been stolen from the safe of Allan's lawyer, Sir John Abbott.
