After Florence Hester Edgar passed away in 1944, there was found among her effects a quantity of compositions in prose and verse almost ready for publication. From this literary bequest has been selected the poetry that follows. Some poems were published in the daily press of Ottawa, and others in a small brochure. But most of the poems are now offered to the reading public for the first time, and the editor bespeaks for them a cordial reception.

Florence Hester Edgar (1874-1944) was born in the village of Dundrum, a subrub of Dublin, Ireland. She spent some years at a school in Germany, where she became proficient in the French and German languages. She travelled to the United States where, for two or three years, she gave private lessons in languages, and then she returned to Ireland with mother and sisters. In 1903, she was married to William Wilkie Edgar, son of the late James Edgar of Toronto. From that time she lived in Ottawa, until her sudden passing, on March 31, 1944.
