Edgar Lee Masters,
Spoon River Author,
Dies at Age Of 81
BY the Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA, Mar. ed
gar Lee Masters, who forsook a
f1ourishing law practice to write
Spoon River Anthology" and
other widely read poems, died
last night at the age of 81.
Mr.. Masters had been retired
from an active literary career dur
ing the latter part of his life and
at the time of his death was a
patient in convalescent home
at suburban Melrose Park.
He was stricken with virus
pneumonia several days ago.
In addition to Spoon River
which made him one of the Ma
tion's most talked of poets over
fnight-Mr. Masters penned a
number of novels, boys stories and
biographies of such men as
Vachel Lindsey, Walt Whitman,
Mark Twain and Abraham Lin
coin.
Born in Kansas.
Born August %, 1868, in Gar
nett, Kans., he was the son of an
attorney, Hardin Wallace Mas
ters, for many years Mayor of
LeWistoWn, III. The father was a
law partner of William H. Hern-
don, once Lincoln's law Office as
sociate and his first biographer.
Young Masters spent some time
as a cub reporter and learned the
printers trade in Lewistown. After
being admitted to law practice
he moved to Chicago.
He was still engaged in his
legal career there when his best
known work, Spoon River An
thology," was published in 1914
under the pen name webster
Ford"
The book not only made Mr..
Masters an overnight literary SEN
sation, but served to create a
renewed interest in American
poetry.
The Dead Speak.
The work was named for a
small stream that flows near
Petersburg, H., where Mr.. Mas
ters lived during part of his youth.
In Spoon River Anthology" the
dead of small town speak truth
fully-and sometimes unflatter-
ingly-of their lives and relation
ships with others in the commun-
ity.
Mr.. Masters produced at least
one book of poetry for a number
of years as well as several books
Of prose. He considered The
Domesday Book" and it's sequel,
"The Fate of the Jury" better
works than Spoon River"
Mr.. Masters married Helen Jen-
kins at Chicago in 1898. That
marriage ended in divorce and in
1926, he married Ellen Coyne of
Kansas City, his Junior by 81
years.
. In addition to his widow, Mr.
Masters is survived by his son,
Hilary. and three children by his
first marriage. Hardin Wallace
Masters, Mrs. William Schmid,
and Mrs. Barton Gebhart.

OF the way all six teams in the

League went out and played for
blood on Sunday. 1t is apparent
from the way these first games
went that the baseball fans of this

raising ball games for the remain
der of the 1850 season.
At Frederick the Hustlers de-
feated Silver Spring 81 on the
strength of Paul Hilderbrand's 18th
inning homer. "Rastus" LIE Gore
came in to pitch for Frederick in
the 9Th and was the winner while
Hank" Neighbors was the loser.
Colesville and Rockville clashed
head on at Welsh Field and when
the dust had cleared doc" Man
mars boys had a sweet 7-5 victory
all wrapped up. Rockville jumped
off to a commanding TO lead in the
first four innings and though
Colesville threatened all the way
they could never quite catch up.
