Excerpt from The Cruise of the Cutter: And Other Peace Poems

The following simple poems have been written with a desire in the author's heart to spread the principles of Peace, and accelerate in some humble way the desired consummation of the beating of swords into ploughshares, and the spears into pruning-hooks, when men shall learn war no more. It is surely the duty of Christians of all denominations, of all colours and of all clans, - making the Bible their guide book, whose holy utterances are peace on earth and goodwill towards men,-to labour for the spread of this precious truth, when man shall meet his brother everywhere, and the dread ful voice of War shall no more be heard.
