Humor but not always genial, often acid with understanding but not pity. Then after Hall's poem on Sarah Ann Dewitt, I reread several of her books, charming and delightful in style. I like to feel I have a stake in Maine as the home of my paternal ancestors through several generations. I love Longfellow's Portland memoirs.
