Poetical Favorites Yours And Mine

Excerpt from Poetical Favorites, Yours and Mine It can be said with truth that this compilation was begun thirty years ago, or more; for some of the poems were taken from the compiler's scrap-book, where they have been his good friends and companions for fully that length of time. No effort has been made to make the collection exhaustive, for no one volume could possibly contain all the favorite poems. It is hoped, however, that between the covers of this little book there will be found enough of your favorites to justify its title. The compiler wishes to express his thanks to publishers and authors who have so kindly permitted him to include a number of poems subject to Copyright. Thanks are also due to my young friend and business associate, Herbert H. Fletcher, of Philadelphia, for suggestions and assistance. The title was given to the collection by him.
