Excerpt from Poems of Charles Robb We can not claim for Mr. Robb the merit that he first saw daylight in a log cabin. Although that event would be no hinderance to the birth of a poet's soul. N 0 more than an advent of the kind would have handicapped the great general* who was born in the same county and state in a log cabin a few miles from the home of our author. The homestead of the family was located on Twelve Mile Creek, three miles back of New Richmond. The house was built on a high hill about half a mile from the creek. The location was an ideal one. The house was of brick which were made on the farm. A large comfortable home surrounded by a lovely lawn dotted here and there with a variety of evergreens and interspersed with flowering shrubs. Here on the sth of January, 1826, was born the subject of this sketch. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
