Sidney Lanier Program Highlights Southern Poet
The Lum Roark Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy met at Mrs. R. A. Srame’s home for a program by Mrs. George Day on Sidney Lanier. Day praised Lanier as a Southern writer who chose idealism over material success and noted his enduring place in American literature through his poetry and music. She cited his Civil War capture, flute kept as a prisoner, and posthumous publication in 1898, emphasizing music’s role in education and Lanier’s contribution to Southern letters.
