Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Wandering Angel: And Other Poems

The author's first volume was published between three and four years ago, the pieces contained in it being written at different intervals, and with no intention to a collected publication. The success which the work met with was somewhat beyond his anticipations, and he cannot resist the present Opportunity of gratefully acknowledging the kind ness which it received from the press. A voice from the town, published two years ago, has also experienced the same gratifying reception.
