Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Better in the Mornin´: Ballads of Pathos, Humor, and Satire The author of these songs and ballads was the eldest son of Deacon Samuel Coan, of Garland, Maine; born in Exeter, Maine, November 17, 1837, and a direct descendant of Peter Coan, who came to America from Worms, Germany, in 1715. His ancestors, on the maternal side, traced their lineage directly back to the Pilgrims that came over in the "Mayflower." His parents, belonging to the humbler walks of life, were by no means lacking in intelligence, and they sought to give their children that which would stand them in hand better than the wealth which they could not bestow, - an education and an honest name. His early life was spent in the common and high schools of the towns of Exeter and Garland. At a very early age he showed a strong inclination to become a preacher, and while yet very young would return from church and preach the sermon he had heard over again to his parents and relatives; going through the whole sermon with great solemnity, using his own words, however, but words very apt and accurate to the subject. Later on in life he fell in with associates who were believers in liberal doctrines, and for a time he was afloat upon the sea of scepticism and doubt.
