CENTENARY OF NOTED
IRISH POET. S
8,&S$4538 $$$
Dublin, Jan. 10. In literary circles
throughout Ireland tribute was paid
today to the life and work of Sir
Aubery De Vore, on the occasion of
the centennial anniversary of ' the
birth of the famous Irish poet. De
Vore was born one hundred years ago
today at Curragh Chase, near Lime
rick. His death occurred at the same
place on January 21, 1902.
In-a Deriod of unrest and endless
activity, De Vore was content with a
j i;fe 0f simple harmony and the joy
that his poetic genius brought to him.
For nearly the entire portion of his
eighty-eight years he remained at the
family home, occupying the same
J room, and reading and writing in his
father's library.
He was a poet by nature and by
temperament. His thoughts were
noetic fancies. Southey, who 'know
him well, called him an "entire poet,"
and Cardinal Newman said that in
every action of his mind he was a
poet.
Through Tennyson De -Vore met
Mary Anderson, the famous Amer
ican actress who became Mme. Na
varro, and they exchanged letters for
several years. They used to take
long walks together on Hampstead
Heath and talk about the people who
had made it almost sacred ground.
The poet did not care much about
outward form. In this connection it
is recalled that he once drove with
Mme. Navarro in Rotten Row, and
while she was beautifully gowned and
the carriage was perfectly appointed,
he held over his head, shading his
avaa on nmlvalln IiIta He nmn'i
