Mr. McGirt’s poetry is spontaneous, natural and true.

(Mrs.) MARGARET E. SANGSTER.


My Dear Mr. McGirt: Your verses indicate talent. I see no reason why you should not have a great deal of success.

Sincerely Yours,
(Mrs.) ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.


Mr. James E. McGirt:

Dear Sir:—You show in these verses a talent for putting thoughts into literary form ... very rare. I have found the sentiment of the poems always pure and orthodox—often sweet and touching; there is a simplicity about them which wins the reader’s attention....

I remain sincerely yours,
JULIAN HAWTHORNE.
