Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Biography and Poetical Remains of the Late Margaret Miller Davidson
An intimate acquaintance in early life with some of the relatives of Miss Davidson had caused me, while in Europe, to read with great interest every thing concerning her; when, therefore, in 1833, about a year aller my return to the United States, I was told, while in New York, that Mrs. Davidson, the mother of the deceased, was in the city and desirous of consulting me about a new edition of her daughter's works, I lost no time in waiting upon her. Her appearance corresponded with the interesting idea given of her in her daughter's biog raphy; she was feeble and emaciated, and supported by pillows in an easy chair, but there were the lungerings of grace and beauty in her form and features, and her eye still gleamed with intelligence and sensibility.
