Text Appearing Before Image:
ithin a year. Yet Payne never found a home for himself. He was born ina little cottage on the outskirts of New York in 1791, went toLondon at the age of twenty-one, produced his song at the ageof thirty-two, continued his wanderings over the earth untilthe age of sixty-one, and died at Tunis, North Africa, in 1852.For several years he had been serving as United States consul inthat city, so that even in death he was an exile from home. In 1882 a philanthropist of Washington, the late W. W.Corcoran, had the poets body removed to the capital of theUnited States, believing this to be the proper place for theremains of the author of Home, Sweet Home. In 1883 a monument was erected to his memory. The inscriptions on the shaft are simple. The front bears thename, dates of birth and death, etc. On the reverse side iscarved the following quatrain: Sure, when thy gentle spirit fled To realms beyond the azure dome,With arms outstretched, Gods angel said, Welcome to Heavens Home, Sweet Home. 122
