I MUST PROCLAIM YOUR ABSENT NAME IS NOT MY BLAME
If on this book’s few pages space
Some worthy one of either Race
Finds not his name in any place,
Think not it is the author’s slight
That kept your name from inky write;
For he has toiled both day and night
In vain research both far and near
To get more facts than here appear.
Thus blame not him for real neglect
’Cause your own name he did not get:
And if a wrong fact herein be
It was not writ intentionally.
So friend, resume your cheerful moods
And smile away those fretful broods
For of all names in type here set
The writer makes no one his pet,
But equally lauds all those who seek
To inspire youths and help the weak.
The Author.
