M LARKIN PEARSON.
By Mrs. F. L. Townsend, in Charlotte
IN. CT Observer.

by MIS-. +. II. IOWnSenQ, IN ChaflOCle
IN. CO. Observer.
l have in my possession a plain
little volume Of poems called "Castle
Gates" by James Larkin Pearson.
The author was born in 1879 so the
preface says, in the mountains neal
Moravian Falls, North Carolina. Like
Burns, he trod the fields behind his
plow and read poetry wherever he
could find it. He went to the district
school altogether, he thinks, not more
than twelve months. Of the book he
SAYS:
cit was printed in my w shop
here at Moravian Falls. My wife,
who is also a printer, helped me set
the type, and l clicked off" the
sheets on my old job press-foul
pages at a time. 1t took over-15,-
900 Impressions to print the edition OF
500 COPIES"
1t would go without saying that a
book of poems produced under such
conditions would have crude or incon-
sequent matter in it, but withal, the
real thing is there. Now and then
it shines out with the clearest luster.
a light to gladden. the heart.
The young man has nimble wit.
'The Old Turkey Gobbler" is a parody
that is exceedingly clever, to use the
adjective in it's English sense. "Ten
Thousand Years Ago" is particularly
bright, but too long to quote here. But
[ dare say MI. Pearson would not care
to have his lighter veres noticed tc
| the exclusion of the more serious
lines which come nearer being a true
measure of the mans ability.
There is so much promise herein
, bits of lyric sweetness, a love-sone
with an imperfection at first, while
further ON you find a few lines thai
are wholly perfect-altogether, my
heart is stirred nightly as l think O.
the writer shut off from the sympath!
and encouragement that he needs.

NOTICES
AN APPRECIATION OF JAMES
LARKIN PEARSON

By Mrs. Ella z. Harris, Lenoir, N. C.
Editor Wilkes Patriot,
Wilkesboro, N. G.
Dear Sir:
Permit me, as one who believes in
cultivating the mind and heart by the
perusal of poetry and the best litera-
ture, to express my appreciation of
your column given over to the poems
of James Larkin Pearson. Those who
know this writer as a humorist only,
and who have made his acquaintance
through the medium of his unique
publication known as The Fool-Killer,
have obtained a view of him from the
wrong angle. The truth is, he is a
poet of high ability and deserves to be
read and appreciated by the people Of
his time. In his dialect poems there
is the same depth and sweetness, the
same love of nature and home life,
that ch~aracteriZes Riley's best. And
for pure pathos let me cite you tc
P~earson's Belgium" and "The River
and the Sea-" The last mentioned
poem begins in lofty strain, and is
an epitome of life to it's heart-cry for
rest in the last stanza.
Amid the discord of unsettled condi-
tons we are in danger of %neglecting
the finer and sweeter things of life
Poetry is one of these, and those
great and tender souls with the fire OF
genius in their brains and the love
of nature and the race in their hearts
who interpret nature for US and tel
US in tender rhyme what we feel but
can never express, are not half ap.
preciated by a restless, hurrying age
Let US give all honor and appreciation
to those who enrich our literature
while me may. l hope others wh'
love poetry will give this gifted youns
author a word Of encouragement AM
appreciation in behalf of his really ex
cellent SONGS.
The fool-killer., 1919-08-01
JAMES LARKIN PEARSON
BY Dr.. Arthur T. Abernethy, of New
Xon1r

York.
Wilkes County, North Carolina, has
a writer of poems whose gems will
forts of poetic genius. It is an unfor-
encouraged until it's genius has died.
"Seven Grecian cities boasted Homer
dead,
Through which the living Homer beg
ged for bread"
Robert Burns, who sang like the
angelic choir, starved out a miserable
existence, misunderstood, maligned,
and finally buried in poverty by a
people whose children delight to claim
ever so slight a remembrance of the
genius of Scotland.
Oliver Goldsmith, if he were alive
today, could have the highest seat
IN the society of kings, but when he
lived he had to eat behind a screen on
the only occasion he ever had to dine
with royalty, because his clothes were
TOO tattered for him to be seen by his
hosts.
Byron Jared better, because he had
nigh political rank lin England, but
we let Poe, the most brilliant of our
American poets, die in a howell. And
John Howard Payne wept in a beg
gar's garments in the Washington
City audience which heard Daniel
Webster join Jenny Lind in singing to
the president and his cabinet Payne's
immortal poem, "Home, Sweet Home"
Just what fate awaits the North
Carolina poet remains to be seen, but
it is significant that the editor of The
Forum and The Worlds Work ecstati-
cally proclaimed the poetry of James
Larkin Pearson the work of a genius.
And such believe it to be.
Pearson saw service in the news
paper world as a Washington CORES
pondent, and as a member of the staff
: of the Charlotte IN. CO. Chronicle.
Then with a patience inconsistent with
his genius he laboriously collated his
little songs, set them up in type by
hand, and kicked them off into print
n book form between the times ne
had to expal the wolf of poverty f 3rr
his doorway b. coaxing the Wilkes
County soil for the delivery Of the
,uccuEent tubcr and the growing
grain.
Pearson ought to be ranked Whe, Q
nc belongs. He is q genius of poetry,
and his work will live. He ought to
be encouraged now-not after the
angle-worms have Toasted on his s.
lent brain.
