Description:Excerpt from Poems of John Whiting Storrs: With Memoir From the condition in which the manuscripts were found it is evident that Mr: Storrs had intended to revise them somewhat, but in just what line or direction cannot be known. Feeling personally anxious that the work should be completed, and being urged thereto by his Masonic and personal friends, I have attempted the work of compiling and arranging the poems for publication, not because I was the one best fitted for it, but because, know ing him intimately, and having been bound to him by family and fraternal ties for more than a third of a century, I better know the man and the spirit that prompted and permeated all his writings. Doubtful of my abilities in such a line. I have attempted a task which I would not have done but for the kindly assistance of Mr. M. Emerson, of The Ansonia Sentinel, with whom Mr. Storrs had been associated on the editorial staff. Had Mr. Storrs lived to complete the work he would doubtless have modified many of his poems, for some of them, as I well know, were hurried ly written for special occasions, without time for revision. I have preferred to print them just as I found them, correcting only manifest typographical errors, and preserving the strong individuality with which they are stamped.
