Excerpt from A Galaxy of Progressive PoemsJohn W. Day was born in Annisquam (a part of the city of Gloucester, Mass.), February 17th, 1838. His parents were Joseph and Augusta L. Day. His mother was the daughter of Rev. Ezra Leonard, who in the early days of Universalism became a convert to its teachings, bravely renounced his connection with the Orthodox denomination, and was followed in his change of belief by his whole parish (excepting deacons), to whom he lovingly expounded for years the "new light" of that day, until"Th' eternal sunshine settled on his head!"The subject of this sketch received his education at the grammar schools of the rugged seaport of his nativity, at the High School of Portsmouth, N. H., and at Hampton Academy, where he began fitting for Harvard College.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
