Hastening decay and the destroyer s final blow
He died at Lachine, near Montreal, in 1847, when sixty-two years old; regret and sorrow at forced banishment from his native "hills and dales," no doubt, hastening decay and the destroyer's final blow.
"Dearly lov'd scenes of my youth, for ever adieu,
Like mist on the mountain ye fade from my view,
Save at night in my dreams."
Like mist on the mountain ye fade from my view,
Save at night in my dreams."
The Emigrant.
