He was only here to visit a friend, but Nature, in its universal and all pervading ma] esty and beauty, lures the souls Of poets.
Winfield Lionel Scott was born a poet. From earliest childhood he was an artist to his finger tips. He is not only a painter who carries the deep, full breath Of the woods and the glory of the skies and Nature in her varied moods, but he 18 a painter Of words, and 18 one of the few artists who 18 thus able to express himself.
He has traveled In many lands and never tires in his love and devotion to Nature.
His home has ever been a Salon, where guests with artistic leanings and inclinations spent many happy hours.
While he 18 an artist of wide reputation and a versatile writer who has volumes Of gracefully-woven verses and essays breathing the spirit of hope and optimism, he has touched a note in his latest book, Beneath Rafter and Thatch, that almost seems to suggest the little thatched cot in Ayrshire, Where Bobbie Burns was born.
