Piatt was the friend and intimate of Bayard Taylor, Stoddard, Curtis, Sted man, Prentiee, Longfellow, Holmes, Lowell, Jean Ingelow, Aubrey de Vere and a host of other distinguished men and women, and during his long residence abroad as a representative of this government made many elose friends among the most celebrated people of the time. In the Century Magazine of either June or July, 1903, in an article on ' ' Our Literary Diplomats," Piatt was well included with Bancroft, Lowell, Taylor and other

Mr. Piatt was long associated with many of the early writers of the Middle West, notably W. D. Howells, with whom he renewed an earlier acquaintance in Louisville in 1859 and in December of that year a joint volume of their early verses appeared under the title "Poems of Two Friends." That this is held in high esteem by collectors is shown by the fact of a copy of this book having sold at one of the great sales of Americana last Spring in New York for $15, which, considering that both poets are alive and Mr. Howells, at least, very much before the public at this time, was a record price. During the stay of the Piatts in
the United States to represent this 'Ireland they were much feted and country abroad. And in Piatt's case sought after by the writers of that

In 1881 a new arrangment of some of his poems was published under the title of "Idyls and Lyrics of the Ohio Valley," reissued in London in 1884, and another vol amen in London called "Little New World Idyls and Other Poems," succeeded by a later arrangement under the title of "The Ghost's Entry and Other Poems."

their subsequent removal from the post at Dublin by Mr. Cleveland, call
ed out an amazing expression of eulogistic public feeling.
Mrs. Piatt published in London,

had the year previous put out her "A

'The. Witch in the Glass," published
through Houghton, Mifflin & Co., and one or two other volumes make up Mrs. Piatt's formal output and gives her a. permanent place among the exponents of the poetie art in this coun
try. Her verse has the most pro
nounced lyrical quality, and is, as
one writer has put it, "more poignantly human than introspective,"
this being peculiarly illustrated by
the following poem called "At Edinburgh Street Crossing."
'She started suddenly from the moving mass,
The wind sprang up and caught her
by the shawl,
And held her like a thing that dared
not pass
Then shook her for an instant. That
was all. 'Once beautiful, and still almost child,
She wore her wet hair round her with
a grace.
I saw the great eyes staring black and
wild,
As the scared lamplight shuddered
from her face. Upon her track there followed such a cry:
'Will you come back or not' was all
it said. Will you come back or no?' The voice wailed by

The association of the Piatts with
Prentice, Galligher, Forsyth Wilson and other "passionate pilgrims" of the Ohio Valley, makes one of the in
teresting chapters in the literary his
tory of this eountry, and Mr. Piatt's
paper read before he Western Asso
ciation of Writers last summer, on "The Poets and Poetry of the Ohio
Valley" was notable in its apprecia
tive expression of the work of these
men, who are, perhaps, somewhat forgotten by the feverish readers of the
six best sellers.

Because his farm hands were slow in getting his hay in and he feared that it would be spoiled, George Burton, a wealthy farmer, fired a bullet into his brain yesterday morning at his home on the River road, between New Baltimore and Miamitown, according to statements of relatives. Neighbors intimate that there were domestic differences that had causd the old man to worry of late.

Mr. Piatt has within the past few years been conspicuous in editing "The Hesperian Tree," called also "A Souvenir of the Ohio Valley," and published by John Scott & Co., at North Bend, and whose object is, as Mr. Piatt says in the introduction, ' ' To offer to the Public in this volume a magazine of literary miscellany in prose and verse, comprising stories,
essays, sketches and poems, the contributors to which should be native to or identified with the Ohio Valley," and this has been successfully done, the volume itself being beautiful in format. These poets embody, perhaps, a certain pathos, the pathos of the rare
and superlative, who after rendering to their country both through public service and in the far more precious expression of aesthetics, an enexampled good, are not accorded agrateful tribute of appreciation by a later public runner on to eternity after a literary ideal which rises no higher than "Graustark," and whose apogee of a man is a Wall Street magnate wallowing in his income to this public's adoring and gloating delight.
