Lot description
William Cullen Bryant. Two stanzas from "March" written in the author's hand, signed by him, and dated March 1st, 1865, pasted onto the rear endpapers of Thanatopsis, Sella and Other Poems. The Macmillan Company, New York. 1915. Hardcover. 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches. 238 pages plus 6 of ads. This was Andree Clark's book, with her name written on front endpaper. When the older sister of Huguette Clark died just before her 17th birthday in 1918, the poem "Thanatopsis" was read at her funeral, as it would also be read at her father's in 1925. Pasted onto the front free endpaper is a note to the Rector of St. Thomas Church on 5th Avenue, New York, in an unknown hand, asking him to read the poem from Andree's book, at Mrs. Clark's request, and that a car was being sent with his vestments.
