Excerpt from Texas History in Rhyme
The Muse of History, as Mrs. Pennybacker prophesied, got busy, not with a golden pen, however, but with a six ‘for a nickel lead pencil, and this little volume is the result. By changing the Texas History as adopted by the State, from prose to rhyme, the author has en deavored to supply the need of different forms of expression to arouse interest in and fix in the memory the history of our state and country. These Rhymes will be desirable as supple mentary reading for pupils, and if the truth must be told, a great help to teachers in prepar ing for examinations.
