To Place Original Of Famous Poem by Seeger in Widener

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Farnsworth Room of Widener Library is to receive the original manuscript of the poem "I have a Rendezvous with Death" by Alan Seeger '10, from his mother Mrs. Charles L. Seeger, of New York, as soon as it is bound. The poem was written by Alan Seeger while at the front. It was scrawled in pencil on both sides of a small piece of paper. The Farnsworth Room already has a small volume containing three of Seeger's poems printed by his French associates in memory of him and his comrades. The poems are "I have a Rendezvous with Death," "Amerique and France," and "Champagne, 1914-'15."
