and sonnets full of allusions to local scenes, appear- ances and events. After his return to Scotland many of these were gathered together under the title of "Miscellanies by an Officer. Volume I, Dumfries, 1813." Only one volume, a quarto of 277 pages, was published, and it is now very rare.

The gem of the book is the following

LINES SENT TO MRS. P. E --- D, JUNE, 1783 :

Accept, fair Ann, I do beseech, This tempting gift, a clingstone peach, The finest fruit I culled from three, Which you may safely take from me. Should Pool request to share the favor, Eat you the peach, give him the flavor ;

Which surely he can't take amiss, When 't is so heightened by your kiss.

The full name of the lady to whom the lines were sent was Mrs. Pool England, and her husband was then a lieutenant at Detroit. If excuse were needed for writing poetry, Colonel De Peyster had an excep- tionally good excuse to offer, for he was a personal friend of Robert Burns. De Peyster, after his return to Scotland, and during the time of the French Revolution, commanded the First Regi- ment of Dumfries Volunteers, of which corps the author of Tam O' Shanter was an original mem- ber. The last of Burns's poems, that on "Life," written in 1796, in his sick-chamber, just before his death, was addressed to Colonel De Peyster, and began :

My honored Colonel, deep I feel Your interest in the poet's weal. Ah ! how sma' heart ha'e I to speel The steep Parnassus Surrounded thus by bolus pill And potion glasses.

These facts, had they then been known, would have added zest to our celebration, on January 25, 1859, of the centenary of Burns' birthday.
