DEDICATION.
A Special Man is dedicated to Harvey Hedge, Jacquelyn's father, who, at a Father's Day picnic which Jacquelyn attended at the age of five, saved two other of his children from drowning in a pond in Kansas, but in doing so, was himself drowned. His photo appears on page 18.
Jacquelyn has also dedicated My Man, My Kitty, and Me to Roland, who has dedicated The Little Daisy Girl and The Psalm of Jacquelyn to her.
I stopped to watch the world go past, And found a poem upon the grass. Pick me up! it called to me, In words of prose and poetry.
I picked it up and held it fast. At last! it cried, At last, at last! A bosom close to hold to me, And share its store of misery.
