Book Description

Excerpt from Nuggets of Poems and Prose In placing these Nuggets of Poems before the public, I do so in the hopes that it may be the means of cheering the depressed and be an incentive to the public at large for brighter thoughts and efforts in their daily life. After spending five years in the early opening of the Klondike, searching for nuggets of gold, I come back to my old home town, broken in health, and have been under treatment at the T. B. Hospital where I composed most of these poems. While I was not successful in Nuggets of Gold, I am making another effort in Nuggets of Poems. Trusting the public will give it generous support.
