Early Life and Career
Although born in Chile, Jewell was educated in England, at Chigwell., and Felsted (1902–05)
Jewell first appeared in first-class cricket in South Africa, when he played five games for Orange Free State in the Currie Cup in the space of less than a fortnight in March 1911. He made his debut on the 11th against Transvaal; this match also saw the first-class debut of Arthur's brother John. Arthur, batting at three in each innings, made only 0 and 3 and claimed a single catch, to dismiss Maurice Luckin. His highest score that season was 34, made against Eastern Province in what proved to be his last appearance for eight years.

Famous quotes containing the words early life, early, life and/or career:
“... goodness is of a modest nature, easily discouraged, and when much elbowed in early life by unabashed vices, is apt to retire into extreme privacy, so that it is more easily believed in by those who construct a selfish old gentleman theoretically, than by those who form the narrower judgments based on his personal acquaintance.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“Humanity has passed through a long history of one-sidedness and of a social condition that has always contained the potential of destruction, despite its creative achievements in technology. The great project of our time must be to open the other eye: to see all-sidedly and wholly, to heal and transcend the cleavage between humanity and nature that came with early wisdom.”
—Murray Bookchin (b. 1941)
“I cannot and do not live in the world of discretion, not as a writer, anyway. I would prefer to, I assure you—it would make life easier. But discretion is, unfortunately, not for novelists.”
—Philip Roth (b. 1933)
“Like the old soldier of the ballad, I now close my military career and just fade away, an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the light to see that duty. Goodbye.”
—Douglas MacArthur (1880–1964)
