From an apartment in "Riverby," whose
windows overlooked the Hudson, most
of Burroughs's earlier books were writ-
ten, among them being "Winter Sun-
shine,'
""Birds and Poets," and "Pepac-
ton." From the little bark-covered study
have proceeded "Fresh Fields," "Signs
and Seasons," "Riverby," "A Year in
the Fields," "Green Alaska," etc.

997. Samuel S. Cox, of Zanesville, Ohio, was called "Sunset Cox," because he wrote

so frequently and so glowingly of Ohio

sunsets.

998. Margaret Deland was the originator of Dr. Lavendar, who appears in "Old Chester Tales" and in " Dr. Lavendar's People." When Dr. Lavendar appeared on the scene, Mrs. Deland became an artist. She has created a character wonderfully natural, human, and appealing. There is no abstraction about his personality, no pietism about his goodness, no lack of vitality in his strength. He is a natural man,-wise, tender, delightfully humorous, and sane, and is at the same time very good company.

999.

"Copse Hill" was the southern home of Paul Hamilton Hayne, and is located at Forest Station, Georgia. Hayne was a descendant of an old Scuthern family. He studied law, but devoted much of his

energy to literature. He published several volumes of musical verse and some miscellaneous work.

1000. Trinity Churchyard, New York City, is notable for the number of illustrious dead resting there. Among them are: Alexander Hamilton; Robert Fulton, the inventor of the steamboat; William Bradford, the first printer in the United States outside of Boston, and the friend of William Penn; and Albert Gallatin, financier and statesman.
