The scene of this little sketch is laid in one of the most delightful of our sea-coast residences, as it respects local situation; one of the earliest settlements of New England, and the birthplace of many individuals, whose memory, though perhaps unknown to fame, is cherished by their descendants to the third and fourth generation. With the hope that it may be received with favor, and do good, the writer, who is herself a native of Lynn, offers it to the public.

A WINTER IN RETIREMENT
SCATTERED LEAVES
A home on Ocean’s sounding shore
Would be the home for me,
Though loudly hoarse the wild waves roar,
