Whittier praised for steady life amid literary toil
A nostalgic column reflects on Jon Greanleaf Whittier birthday and character comparing him to Walt Whitman. It notes his long life, steady poetic output, and lack of mass appeal while praising his virtue and public spirit. The piece also comments on local figures Bynum Mills McClamny and postmaster election, with satire on politics and baseball magnates.
