to have been born.


He was chritsened Cincinnatus
Heine Miller, and was the son OF
farmer parents who came TO Indiana
in the early days from Kentucky.
They settled first in Union county
and lived later in Grant county. The
most trustworthy data give Miller's
birth as November 10, 1871. Union
and Grant counties. says the Indian
apolis News, have disputed the honor
of the Miller farm, but the choice
seems finally to have rested with the
former.
The bowlder rests in the court
house square at Liberty. Embedded
in it is bronze tablet, bearing the
likeness of the poet and verse
which, if not Miller's best, at least
expresses his philosophy
In men whom men condemn as i'll
Ifind so much of goodness still;
IN men whom mem pronounce de-
vine
find so much of sin and blot,
| hesitate to draw line
Between the two where God has
not.
1t may not be amiss to call atten-
ton to some features of Joaquin Mil
lers life. The name by which the
poet came to be generally known was
the product of natural change and
growth and it expresses better the
quaintness OF character originality
and individuality which the world re-
marked in Miller, once he had become
famous. Europe's appreciation really
came first. An early paragraph
which Miller wrote revealed some
thing of the satisfaction, mixed with
regret, that he felt on being SO favor
ably received in England.
