The author is bound to acknowledge the courtesy of the several magazines that have permitted him to include in this volume poems which they had bought and printed. The first of the sonnets, To England, originally ap peared in Tfie Atlantic Mantfily; the second, under the title A Rumor Goes, in Tim New Engfand Magazine, which also published the sonnet Betrayed. The lyric, Pigeon Post, was first issued in the Cfiautauguan, and blood-road in Tag C/mrc/mzan. In general, how ever, these verses, as commenting upon current events, were printed, when they were printed at all, in news papers, more often in T/ie Sprz'ng'z'eld Republican, occasion ally in Tbc Boston Transcript. It will be evident to the reader, if so excellent a personage exist, that they were suggested, in most instances, by cablegrams from South Africa as given to the American press during the Boer war.
