HENRY JEROME STOCKARD
ON JOHN HENRY BONER
Some of the North Carolina Bard's Most Famous
Poems Reviewed by His
Friend

To the Editor: At the request of the
editor it gives me pleasure to write
Iurther of the life and work of our dead
poet.
John Henry Boner was born at Salem,
N. c., in 1915, and SO, at the time of his
death, was about fifty eight years of agC.
His parents were of German descent, and
were identified in work and spirit with
the Moravian settlement in that OLD
town. The poet had only one brother,
Eugene, who was q professor of music
and is, l believe, also dead. He tad no
sister. Financial reverses with the father
cut short the education of the sons and
necessitated their becoming breaa-wiE
ners III early life. John learned the
printers trade, and was soon editing a
small paper Of his own In 1913, he
was chosen Reading Clerk in the LegiS
lature and moved to Raleigh where, at
ter this service, he worked in one OF
the printing offices. The next year,
1869, he married Miss Charlotte Smith.
of this city While here he formed a
close friendship with Theo. H. Hill and
Joseph Holden. For sixteen years after
he left Raleigh-from 1871 to 1SS7-ne
held civil service position in the Gov
ernment Printing Office at Washington,
York city, where he engaged in literary
work for seven years. AS was said IL
my former note, he held im 0o'tdnt posi-
tions during this period: but, owing to
declining health, was forced to surrender
his ideals and return to his former less
exacting duties.
His only volume of poetry, "Whisper
ing Pines,' was printed in 1888; and, as
ne has been a frequent contributor to
some of our leading joUEpals-notably
The Century Magazine--a large part of
his best work has never been collected.
About two years ago he issued pam
phlet containing a few of these later
poems but this was not extensively cir
Culated, nor is it in satisfactory form.
The range of his notes is wide. 1t ex-
tends from the negros rousing camp
meeting song to the gravest and most
polished lyric Compare these two poems
as illustrative of this statement:

THE LIGHTOOD FIRE.

When wintIy days dark and drear
And all the forest ways grow still,
When gray snow-aden clouds appear
Along the bleak horizon hill,
When cattle all are snugiy penned
And sheep go budding close together,
" hen steady streams of smoke ascend
From farmhouse chilnneys-in such weather
Give old Cardinals own,
great log house, great hearthstone,
A cheering pipe of cob or brlar
And red, leaping light ood fire,
When dreary dav draws to a close
And all the silent land is dark,
When Borcas down the chimney blows

REMEMBER ANCE.

1 think that we retain of dead friends
And absent ones no general portarature;
That perfect memory does not long endure,
But fades and fades until own life ends
InconSciously forgetfulncss attends
That grief for which there is no other cure,
But leaves of each lost some record sure
A look, an act, tone-something that lends
Relief and consolation. not regret
Even that poor mother mourning her dead child'
Whose agoniZng eyes with tears are wet,
Whose bleeding heart not be reconclied,
Unto the graves embrace-Gven she shall yet
Remember only when her babe first smiled!

HOW OFT I'VE TROD THAT SHADOWY WAY
Full many a peaceful place I've seen
But the most restful spot l know
IS one where thick dark cedars grow
In an old graveyard cool and green.
The way to the seQuestered place
Is arched with boughs OF that sad tree,
And there the trivial step Of gee
Must sober to a pensiye pace
How oft I've trod that shadowy way
In bygone years sometimes while vet
The grass with morning dew wet,
And sometimes at the close of day,
And sometimes when the summer noon
Hung like a slumbrous midnight spell
Sometimes when through the dark trees Leli
The sacred WhteneSS of the moon.
Then is the hour to wander there
When moonlight silvers cree and stone
And in the soft night wind is blown
Ethereal essence subtly rare.
At such hour the angels tread
That halowed spot in stoles as white
As lilies, and in silent fight
They come and go till dawn is red.

POE'S COTTAGE AT FORDHAM.

Here lived the soul enchanted
BY melody OF song;
Here dv-elt the spirit haunted
BY a demoniac throng;
Here sang the lips elated:
Here grief and death were stated;
Here loved and here minated
Was he, SO frail, SO strong.
Here wintry winds and cheerless
The dying freight blew
While he whose song was peerless
Dreamed the drear midnight through,
And from dull ernbers chilling
Crept shadows darkly filling
The silent place, and thrilling
His fancy as they grew.
Here, with brow barred to heaven,
In starry night he stood,
With the lost star of seven
Feeling sad brotherhood.
Here in the sobbing showers
OF dark autumnal hours
He heard suspected powers
Shrek through the stormy wood.
From visions of Apollo
And Of Astarte's bliss
He gazed into the hollow
And hopeless vale of Dis;
And though earth were surrounded
Ry heaven, it still was mounded
NTH graves His soul had sounded
Inc QOiOrOuS abyss.
Proud. mad but not defiant.
He touched at heaven and hell.
Fate found rare soul plant
And rung her changes well.
Alternately his Tyre,
Stranded with strings of fire.
Led earth's most happy choir
Or flashed with ISRAELI.
No singer of old story
Luting accustomed lays,
No harper for new glory,
No mendicant for praise,
He struck high chords and splendid,
Wherein were fiercely blended
Tones that unfinished ended
With his unfinished days.
Here through his lowly portal,
Made sacred by his name,
Jnhcraldcd immortal
The mortal went and came
And fate that then denied him.
And envy that decred him.
And malice that belied him,
Have cenotaphed his fame.
