Frances Brackett Damon (née, Brackett; pen name, Percy Larkin; May 21, 1857 – December 13, 1939) was an American writer of poetry, short stories, essays, playlets, and novels.[1] She was also an editor of the literary magazines,[2] The Quiet Hours and The Tally Ho. She wrote many short stories for young persons, and some reform correspondence. Among her works are the poetry collection, The Bodfish Road (1901),[1] the novel, Idlewise, the novelette, A Daughter of Pharaoh, and a long poem, "The Wind-Flower".[3] Her songs were probably the best known of her verse, several having been used officially by the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) and two at least having been adopted by foreign countries and sung at World WCTU conventions.[4]
