About three years ago we published
poem, "The.Logan Grazier," by Thomas
Dunn English. This poem was originally
published in the Richmond Enquirer
about the year 1852 or 1858. 1t was prac-
tically out of print and came into our pos
session by accident. We had frequently
heard it spoken of, and had heard Hon. l.
G. Fowler on several occasions recite part
of the lines. 1t afforded us pleasure to
bring the full poem to light. Recently we
have had several requests to reproduce the
poem, and do so in this issue of the Re-
PUBLICAN. DR.. English spent several years
in Tazewell during the ifties and is still
we'll remembered by some of the older
citizens. He is still living, at venerable
age, somewhere in the State Of New Jersey.
1t has been demonstrated repeatedly in
every state in the Union and in many for.
eign countries that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is a certain preventive and cure
for Group. 1t has become the universal
remedy for that disease NJ. V. Fisher, of
Liberty, w. Va, only repeats what has
been said around the globe when he writes:
81 Lave used Chamberlain's Cough Rene
dy in my family for several years and al
ways with perfect success. We believe
that it is not only the best cough remedy,
but that it is a sure cure for Group. II has
saved the lives of our children number
of times" This remedy is for sale by
