sunset, or hang over him an everlasting moonlight? If the stream had no quiet eddying place, could we so admire its cascade over the rocks? Were there no clouds, could we so hail the sky shining through them in its still, calm purity? Who shall venture to ask our kind Mother Nature to remove from our sight any one of her forms or colors? Who shall decide which is beautiful, or otherwise, in itself considered? There are too many, like my fastidious friend, who go through the world from Dan to Beersheba, finding all barren, –who have always some fault or other to find with Nature and Providence, seeming to consider themselves especially ill used because the one does not always coincide with their taste, nor the other with their narrow notions of personal convenience. In one of his early poems, Coleridge has well expressed a truth, which is not the less important because it is not generally admitted. The idea is briefly this: that the mind gives to all things their coloring, th

He knew nothing of them, excepting that George, Polly, Francis and Henry resided near the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania, where he had formerly lived.

the Clisbys, with which I was very intimate in my boyhood. They are all dispersed. Aaron Warner Clisby, my especial friend and playmate, is, or was a few years ago, a clergyman in Alabama. The name of Swan was also well known and honored sixty years ago. No one bears that name here now. Mr. Samuel Swan had a family of seven children, and of them I have heard this story: Some one asked which of two of his sons, Lincoln or Timothy, was the elder. Let's see, was the answer; there are Sam, Dan, Jo, Han, Lin, Tim, and Ca—Oh, Lin is the elder! The names, properly extended, were Samuel, Daniel, Joseph, Hannah, Lincoln, Timothy, and Caleb. Daniel Swan was the beloved physician of this town, and most pleasantly remembered by our citizens who have passed middle age. One of the most interesting memorials of the past standing in Medford was the Tufts house in the public square, on the western corner of Forest street. It was torn down in 1867. It was a large unpainted wooden building

Medford Historical Society Papers, Volume 25., The
Bower
(search)
The Bower Among our recent accessions is the poem here presented, written with pencil in an elegant hand. It bears no date but is signed Lincoln Swan. There were two of the name—cousins. Their grandfather, Samuel Swan, Jr., who lived at Furness' corner named one of his sons for his old Revolutionary commander, Benjamin Lincoln. There were six of them and a daughter, but none other had middle names. He abbreviated them all, saying: There are Sam, Dan——Jo, Han——Lin, Tim, Ca. Sam (uel) and Lin (coln) each had an eldest son, Benjamin Lincoln. One of these must have been the author of the poem, and along with our Mr. Hooper one of the schoolboys he tells of in his writing of the bower on p. 13, Vol. XXII, of the Register. We incline to the thought that he was son of the Benjamin Lincoln Swan who moved to New York.

nell's polite qualities, he thought he would ask that gentleman's permission to take a verbatim account of the oration. The "Liberator" not only consented, but, in his oiliest manner, informed the assembled audience that "until that gintleman was provided with all writing' conveniences, he wouldn't spake a word," assuming an extra brogue, which was altogether unnecessary. Russell was delighted. The preparations began, and were completed; Russell was ready. "Are you quite ready?" asked Dan. "Quite ready." "Now, are you sure you're entirely ready?" "I am certain, sir. Yes." The crowd becoming excited and impatient, Dan said: "Now, 'pon my conscience, I won't begin the speech till the London gintleman is entirely ready." After waiting another moment or so, O'Connell advanced; eyes glistened; ears were all attention; and the reportorial pencil arose.--Dan gave one more benignant smile on the correspondent, winked at the auditors, and commenced his speech i
