Professor Hiram Corson noted as leading English literature interpreter on the continent gave Browning Ruskin DeQuincy and Shakespeare readings at the Toronto Round Table Club.

My Star A Poem by Arthur Wer Review and Biography
The piece opens with a quoted poem, My Star, by Arthur Wer, reflecting celestial imagery and personal tributes. It then sketches Wer born in Montreal in 1864, educated at McGill, and notes three published volumes Lys 1887, The Romance of Sir Richard Sonnets and Other Poems 1890, The Snowflake and Other Poems 1890. The Globe’s Pharos praises his ardor and sincerity, cites a lack of exacting form, and highlights poems to his wife as strong for literary memory.
