JOHN D. LONG. Typed Poem signed: "John D. Long", 1p, 8x7.
Titled: "Charade for the Transcript". In full: "Of a
discoverer's name, undimmed by age,/Read but a half and you my first rehearse;/A
well known period next on history's page./Both are familiar forms in Whittier's
verse." Long (1838-1915) followed his terms in the state
legislature (1875-1878) with service as Lieutenant Governor (1879)
and Governor (1880-1882) of Massachusetts, then went to Washington as
a U.S. Representative (1883-1889). He was Secretary of the Navy
under Presidents McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt (1897-1902). Lightly
creased. Shaded at lower edge, light stains at blank areas. Tips of upper left
and right blank corners torn off. Overall, fine condition.
