He grew to manhood In this severely religious but as severely poor home. The farm upon which the family resided and from whlcii they drew their living responded but poorly to the art of cu);lvation, and life was an endless toil. ;:,.-'.-..;,, - There wer in the family the par ents, two sons, two daughters, a mald . n aunt, and a bachelor uncle. -John Greenleaf health was poor, and It is wild that the drudgery or rarro laiwr In winter, and scant clothing made In roads on his constitution, from which he suffered through his long life, t, ? The only, schooling he got was' a few weeks in the district : school .In mid-wintr till his eighteenth i year, and two terms , thereafter of six months ach at the Haverhill Acad my, At the age of fifty, Harvard .

' i Two persona largely ' ; Influenced Whlttler'a life and poetry. One was Robert Burns, ,a copy of whose poems was lent to him by his first teacher.

UAutrA ttnA thA Garrison Then two influences came early Into 'his life. He was otfly 14 -years 'old when Mr. Coffin, one day, visited . the -Whlttier Tiome and .; read Kome verses ; from Burns' - poems, nroung Whlttier, until then 'had read no poetry -except what he Jfrd found In the.

But Whlttier was 'not a quitter. He con tinued the- publication . till falling health forced him to give it up nearly two years later. His anj-slavery writings brought trouble to others as weU as to " himself. . It is v a ; matter of record that a physician in Washington,-Dr. Crandall, languished in prison until he contracted a fatal ill ness, under sentence for -reading a borrowed copy of Whittler's pamphlet "Justice and Expediency." In 18S8, WhltUer had sold the old Haverhill homestead. .And purchased the Amesbury homel to which he re turned in 1840, when he lef. Philadel phia. : The remainder of his life,, ex cept a few months of editorial work in Lowell, 1844, was spent tiere," where he wrote "for mag:fieif; the' principal toeans ; of earning a : livelihood. t ? Through; the, fifty-two remaining year of ,hla lonely bachelor life he di vided his time between reading, writ ing and entertalnlngV; friends, f who parsed thai' way. He was so feeble.j iiiost of the-time that ht could neith er read no writs more than half an hour at a time. ; ' .vf . -?:'V: ry-'"', In a letter' to ,Cella Thaxter, ; July 18, 1870, he speaks as follows of his liMe toon. In the Amesbury house: "My'llttle room is quiet enough, The sweet calm f ace of t the ? pagan philosopher and emperor, . Marcus Antonlus looks down upon me on one hand and on the other the bold, gen erous and humane countenance of the Chrtlan man of cfn. Hen-1 Wat Beecher: Alice and. Phoebe Cary and Mary Dodge. . , . .

Her gravest moo! could scarce displace The dimples of her nut-brown. face. Wit sparkled, on her Hp not lers v:; For quick -and tremulous tenderness: And following close her merriest glances. Dreamed through her eyes, the heart's . romances." . . , ' s . Miss ; Dodge had ' published serially In the Independent ta book called "Woman's Worth and .Worthlessness," and in 1871 she had" It published jhv book ' form. Whlttier, - whom she .: pettishly-called her ''angel," was present ed with a complimentary copy; which he criticises partly as follows in . let ter to Miss Dodge March 1st. 1872: "t quarreled ;w!th thee ften as I read, but, after alU laid - the book - down with almost profound respect for the wise4 UUle woman who lwrotp It. I shall not put my quarrels on paper, but when a kind Providence gives me ay opportunity I shall "withstand thee to thy face.' t .will simply say that my old bachelor, reverence for r woman has been somewhat disturbed by : thy revelations. I ; am not going to Con demn her because thee turns Satan's evddenca against her." l ,iK Whittler's circle of dose friends was as different from the Cambrldga group of which Longfellow; was Idng the cen tra, fl&uTe as were ' the . lives rf ' the two poets. Longfellow was " the pol ished gentleman, among gentlemen, a tireless worker,5 populir, anfluential Harvard professor. - Whlttier was a sort of recluse . somewhat eccentric likely to leave the home of his host without saying "good-bye," especially If a little too much company should come In..-'- , ' . , This apparent Incivility may have been due, in part. at least, to the fact that he could not endure excitement. In' youth, physicians warned him to avoid excitement,-for by so doing he might live- to his fiftieth year. It is a bit difficult to .conclude, however, that a lively, company of friends Irt the drawing room could possibly be a greater peril to pulmonary weakness than a public stoning r other mob violence. , In personal apdearance, Whlttier was not the r most ip'repossesslng of men. n Throughout his life, he adhered to the . peculiarity of Quaker dres. One, an admirer, in 1S53 described him as having "a good exterior, a figure, slender and tall,. & beautiful head with refined features, black , eyes fall of fire, dark complexion, a fine .smile, and lively but very nervous manner. Both soul land spirit have overstrained the nervous cords and wasted the body.1. He belongs to ! thbse ; natures who would advance with firmness and Joy to martyrdom in a good -' cause, and yet who are never comfortable In society, and who look as If they would run out of the dooi1 ajipry moment. Another describes him , as being "of a nervous ' villous temperament, f tall, slender, 'and straight (as an Indian; a superb head; his brow like ? a white cloud under his raven hair, eyes large, black, 'and glowing with expression. " Of his shyness Nora Perry remarks that: ;, "He is generally poken of as a shy man, . avoiding all society. ; lf,l by society we mean larga parties, din-j. ners ana receptions, the general Idea j is a true one. But I think that no one i enjoys the society of a few friends bet ter than "this accredited society hater. No one relishes a good story more, nor can relate one -with belter trace." . '-; -vi. - Francis II, Underwood' Whittler's , hlojrrapher, regard blm as neither "odd" nor "eccentric" (In usual ; par lance)'!) as of marked personality and strong Individual flavor In ail his utterances. ' r : -'....,-'. y-.:-' Mary B. Claflln, the yeir after his death published "Personal Recollections of Whiittier" , In which she - says "Thoughe ordinarily shy ,, and cau tious -and reserved, he could, under favorable circumstances, blossom In to rare graclousncss 1 and sympathy of speech and manner." , . O: WniTIN3. There were two sources of Whittler's Inspiration. One was his love of free dom an,l sympathy for the oppress-5'! of every nme and ord?r. The otluTi was Jw Encland rural life.

If it Is In the art, then Pope Is greater J than Shakespeare; if it la In melody and harmony and music, then Tenny son Is .greater than Browning. , -''Art" says one, "may, lift .an. Inferior tal ent to higher estimation, but genius makes a very little art go a long way. This was Whittler's case.. The poetic spark was Inborn In him, living In his life, and when academic criticism has said its . last - word, he remains a poet." - Whlttier puhllshes his first volume "Legends of New England" In 1831. It contained oleven poems and seven prose sketches, ' and was printed ': in the office of The Hartford Review, of which he was then editor. Whatever the author thought of this production when it came from the. press. It la known that he would 'gladly , : have suppressed It later it, life. In an edi tion of his collected works Issued from The Riverside Press, 1888, Whlt tier discards everything In this first volume, except two ; . of the eleven . poems, and changes the title of one' of them. - Whenever . he could : get hold of a copy he would destroy it, and he Is said to have ."paid $5 for one copy which ha burned.

' "In Snow-Bound" he' ranks - with Goldsmith ln,"The Deserted Village," and Burns ' In "Cotter's Saturday NlSihf ' .The "'Barefoot Boy" inter prets not only the New England boya life, hut also the American boy's life. "Skipper Ireson's Ride", meets with as responsive a mld m Dixie or in California, ,as If the amusing com edy given there . had been trans acted on these sunny -.-or. western shores. We shall likely come to feel as the years go , by. .ihat. Whlttier was a national rather than a New England poet. ' Ills hymns are found In the church music of all denomi nations. In the collection of sixty-six hymns used at the World's Parlia ment of Religions in 1883, nine were from Whlttlcr-r-more than from any .ther . poet. . . "-''.' Whether Whlttier will live In Amei- lean literature none of the critics can tell, (but It is significant that so many think he will, yet he appears to t a read less and lew, every year. He has been dead only fifteen years, yet it eeems as if it had been fifty. Mr. Charles F, Johtwn, ix year after Whittler's death, wrote: "Whlttier, perhaps less graceful than Longfel low, will Influence men lor -r, fi'ir his content of thought 1 more v i ty a nil the emottonn called out l:y a is rent Mrurx'e pulsates his vcre." v.e here :! onlv er. other crl'lo f t i.i i t this oiiiition.
