Excerpt from Poems on Several Occasions In printing these commemorative verses on past scenes and feelings, little need be said, by way of preface, to the dear and valued friends, in whose auspicious circles they will only appear, but that I scarcely claim for them the merit of being styled poetry. Knowing well their deficiencies, and believing the gratification they have afforded to myself, in framing them for my own amusement or solace, has been greater, than the pleasure they can give to others in perusing, - yet, such as they are, the offering is made with much diffidence, but with the latent hope that it may awaken remembrance of me in the minds of many I esteem, when perhaps we can meet no more on earth. They have been produced in compliance with the wishes of an affectionate brother, who feels desirous they should be preserved in some better form than detached sheets of paper.
