POEMS BY LUCY LARCOM:

LARCOM, LUCY. Born in Beverly, Massachusetts, 1826; died in Boston, 1893. Lucy Larcom attracted the attention of Whittier by contributions to the paper he was then editing, and it was largely through Whittier's encouragement that she became known as a poet. Her early youth was spent working in the mills at Lowell, but from 1866 to 1874 she was assistant editor of "Our Young Folks." She published several volumes of verse, collected into a complete edition in 1885.
