The
above
hymn
was
written
by
Lacy
Freer
Shaffer,
of
Atlanta,
Ga.
Mr.
Shaffer
is
a
ready
writer
of
poems,
of
which
he
has
written
a
large
number.
Sometime
in
the
future
he
intends
publishing
a
book
of
his
own
compositions.
An
inspection
will
show
they
are
first-class.
Mr.
Shaffer
was
a
boy
editor
in
Dakota
before
the
territory
was
admitted
as
a
State
in
1886.
He
was
a
member
of
the
convention
adopting
her
constitution
on
becoming
a
State.
Before
he
was
twenty
years
old
he
studied
the
poetical
works
of
Longfellow,
Whittier,
Meredith,
Holland,
Burns,
Bryant,
Shakespeare,
and
others.
He
has
been
engaged
twenty-five
years
as
editor
and
publisher,
and
for
fifteen
years
has
resided
in
Atlanta,
Ga.
It
is
believed
the
above
composition
will
prove
quite
a
favorite.
