Rain on the Roof Poem Found in Kinney Volume
A dictagrammer recalls requests for Coates Kinney's poem Rain on the Roof. Mrs. L Larson in California supplies stanzas, others contributed excerpts, and a complete authentic copy is secured from Lyrics of the Ideal and the Real (1887). The piece dates 1349 and Kinney’s early works are likened to Poe and Hood. Kinney may have died.
