Extractions: Place: Lynn, North Carolina S idney Clopton Lanier was born on February 3, 1842 in Macon, Georgia. Soon after his birth, his family moved to the town of Griffin, and then they returned to Macon when Sidney was six years old. As a child, he loved the outdoors. His rural Georgia surroundings were perfect for a boy who was content to spend hours on a tree limb in the woods, or pass an afternoon with a fishing pole along a quiet river. As he grew up, Lanier taught himself how to play the flute, and he developed a talent for writing, especially for poetry. His passion for nature and the rural countryside of his youth are woven into much of the music and literature that Lanier would create throughout his life. He did very well as a student, and at 14 he left his hometown of Macon and headed off to Georgia's Oglethorpe College, where he graduated at the top of his class. W ithin a year of his graduation, Lanier heeded the call of the Confederate Army, and he signed on for duty in the Civil War. He served as a scout, and then as an officer on the seas aboard a blockade runner off the coast of North Carolina. His maritime adventures came to an abrupt halt when he was captured by Union troops and imprisoned in the fall of 1864. Prison conditions were poor, of course, and the year that Lanier spent in prison seriously damaged his health. When he was released from prison, he returned to civilian life, married, and fathered four sons. He held several jobs as he tried to support his family and still pursue his love of literature and music. As a result of his wartime experiences, Lanier produced his only novel

Extractions: Sydney Lanier in 1874 (Courtesy of Special Collections, The Milton S. Eisenhower Library, Johns Hopkins University) As a nineteenth-century travel writer, Frederick Law Olmsted had produced a readable, straightforward description of San Antonio and its tri-cultural inhabitants during the mid-1850's, but Sydney Lanier was the first writer of belletristic importance, especially in the Southern tradition, to describe the city from a more literary perspective. The accomplished Georgia flautist and poet came to San Antonio at the end of 1872, hoping to improve his tubercular condition, the town being, in Lanier's words, "a growing resort for consumptives" (Lanier 202). While here, he wrote a rambling essay based on his visit titled "San Antonio de Bexar," which was published in the July-August 1873 issue of the Southern Magazine . Even though the bulk of the essay is a historical sketch of San Antonio during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, borrowed mostly from H. Yoakum's History of Texas and a few other sources, Lanier took a genuine interest in the city's cultural diversity, its natural and architectural landmarks, and even its climate and topography.

Extractions: SIDNEY LANIER (1842-1881), American poet, was born at Macon Georgia , on the 3rd of February 1842. He was of Huguenot descent on his father's side, and of Scottish and Virginian on his mother's. From childhood he was passionately fond of music . His subsequent mastery of the flute helped to support him and greatly increased his reputation. At the age of fourteen he entered Oglethorpe College, where, after graduating with distinction, he held a tutorship. He enlisted in the Confederate army in April 1861, serving first in Virginia , and finding opportunities to continue his studies. After the Seven Days ' battles around Richmond , he was transferred to the signal service. About this time the first symptoms of consumption appeared. He subsequently served in a blockade -runner, but his vessel was captured, and he was confined for five months in a Federal prison , his flute proving the best of companions. Exchanged early in 1865, he started home on foot, arriving in a state of exhaustion that led to a severe illness. In 1867 he visited New York in connexion with his novel Tiger Lilies - an immature work, dealing in part with his war experiences, and now difficult to obtain. Later in the same year he took charge of a country school in

Extractions: format this article to print LANIER, SIDNEY Sidney Lanier, poet, critic, and musician, was born in Macon, Georgia, on February 3, 1842, the son of Robert S. and Mary Jane (Anderson) Lanier. He graduated from Oglethorpe College in 1860 and at the outbreak of the Civil War qv joined the Macon Volunteers. He participated in several battles and later served as a scout and in the signal service. He was captured on November 2, 1864, and eventually imprisoned at Point Lookout, Maryland, where hardships and illness led to tuberculosis. After his release in February 1865, he walked home, arriving in Macon on March 15, desperately ill. These experiences are reflected in his antiwar novel Tiger-Lilies (1867) and made the remainder of his life a battle against time, poverty, and ill health. On December 19, 1867, Lanier married Mary Day; the couple had four sons. Lanier practiced law with his father to support his family, and his health grew worse. In 1872 he left his family in Macon and traveled to San Antonio, Texas, via New Orleans, Galveston, Houston, and Austin. He wrote more than 100 letters from Texas, but apparently no poetry. He wrote three short essays: "The Texas Trail in the '70's" (a portion of which was printed under the title "The Mesquit[e] in Texas"), "An Indian Raid in Texas," and "The Mexican Border Troubles." All were published, under the pseudonym Otfall, in the New York World in 1872 and 1873. Lanier's long article "San Antonio de Bexar," with descriptions of places, peoples, and northers, and with historical accounts based on Henderson K. Yoakum'sqv
