d the appointment of a cadet came to me. Horace entered West Point in 1831, and graduated in 1835. Mrs. Brooks lived with him at West Point, when he was Lieutenant Brooks, from 1836 to 1839. In 1840 she was with him at Fort Hamilton, N. Y. She sailed for Cuba, the last time, in December, 1843. She died at Matanzas, Cuba, Nov. 11, 1845, and was buried at Limonal, Horace says, by the side of my two brothers. It is probable that one of these was a half-brother, son of her sister, Lucretia. Mrs. Brooks' son Edgar became a planter in Cuba, and died during the life of his mother. (See her Ode.) Horace, after going through the Mexican War, the Kansas War, and the Rebellion, retired from active service in 1877, having reached the age limit. He was brevetted Major and Lieutenant-Colonel for his services in the Mexican War. He died in 1894. Mrs. Brooks' first publication was made during the life of her husband, in 1820. In 1825 the first canto of Zophiel was published.
