Mr. Linen published three volumes of poems and miscellaneous writings,and contributed te the literary journals of California. His poems were written in the Scotch rdialect. “Take back the ring, dear ‘{ Jamie,” “I feel I’m growing old, dear wife,” “By the spring,” are among his productions. Mr. Linen leaves many warm friends in California. During the Jast few years the path of the old poet was roughened by financial reverses, but he has gone to his rest, and left enough behind to keep his memory green through generations. to come.
