Henry himself.

So much has been written about Sydney Porter that it would seem useless to add more. But here are some anecdotes, some original mss., and some little sidelights that thus far have escaped public notice. As a preface to them, and for those who are not as familiar with his history as others, I quote from Archie Sessions' estimate of him printed in the August just following his death.
