Strangers to Us All Lawyers and Poetry

C.M. Farmer

Virginia

"Farmer, C.M. Lawyer. He lived in Louisa County, Va., and published a work entitled 'The Fairy of the Stream, and Other Poems' (Richmond, 1847). It was playfully criticized by Poe; but the author of 'The Raven' was not blind to the merits of the work."
