Fred Edward Weatherly, known as F. E. Weatherly, was an esteemed British lyricist and author, particularly renowned for his literary works in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born on October 4, 1848, in Portishead, Somerset, Weatherly's prodigious output includes over 3,000 song lyrics and numerous books, contributing significantly to the Edwardian cultural landscape. Graduating in law from Brasenose College, Oxford, Weatherly balanced his career as a barrister with his fervent passion for writing. His book 'Oxford Days; or, How Ross Got His Degree' exemplifies his talent for weaving narratives with humor and a light-hearted university milieu, indicative of the intimate knowledge he had of Oxford scholastic life.

Much loved for his song 'Danny Boy,' set to the tune 'Londonderry Air,' Weatherly's lyrical prowess stands as a testament to his literary significance. He passed away on September 7, 1929, leaving behind a trove of works that continue to be studied and appreciated for their capturing of the Edwardian age's essence.
