up his residence in New York City
where ne was connected with several
of the daily papers and with Putnam S

doing newspaper work that he 'irst
gained distinction as a poet
During two years of the war he
served as Washington correspondent of
the New York World. Returning to
New York in 1864, Mr.. Stedman became
a member of the stock exchange, re.
tanning his seat until 1900. Although

poem The Undiscovered Country" was
sung and it was his desire to have the
three verses sung at his funeral.
