Notes:

Caption title.

The American Antiquarian Society has an electrostatic copy. The only known original, held by the University of Texas, apparently lacks a title page. A ms. title, "A Poem by E. Fisher (on the American Revolution etc.) [Kennebeck, Me. 1804]?" is supplied.

Imprint suggested by textual references to the churches which withdrew from the Bowdoinham Association in 1804 to form the Lincoln Association.

Occasionally attributed to Elijah Fisher (1758-1842) of Livermore, Maine. However, reference on p. 11 to the author's "great age, almost three score and ten" suggests otherwise or else a later publication date.

Last page blank.
