Excerpt from Clydesdale Poems Tm; Author has for many years contributed to local periodicals, especially the Hamilton Advertiser, the following pieces, the writing of which were a solace and comfort to his mind. But for the Muse, existence would have been less enjoyable, some of the pieces being written amidst the distracting cares of a railway life, and many by the midnight lamp. The author never contemplated the publication of his writings in book form till now, in his declining years, he has yielded to the solicitations of his friends to publish a few selections; and, should the small volume be appreciated and patronised by his railway compeers and the lovers of the Muse, he may shortly be induced to give another select volume to the literary world.
