James Matthews Legaré

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

James Matthews Legaré (November 26, 1823, Charleston, South Carolina – March 30, 1859, Aiken, South Carolina) was an American poet and failed inventor.

Legaré was a relative of Hugh S. Legaré. He was by profession an inventor, but whose ill health prevented the commercialization of his devices. He contributed poetry to magazines, and published a single volume, Orta-Undis and other poems in 1848.^[2] Orta-undis means "sprung from water".
