William lived and worked in Coshocton until about 1916, when he moved to New York City and became involved in the printing business. After a decade in NYC, he retired to Los Angeles and published Reveries of a Drummer in December 1926. A handful of the poems are written from the perspective of a traveling salesman or commercial traveler, who were at the time known as ''drummers,'' out to ''drum-up'' business. Includes one poem-tale about a Coshocton baseball game played by the Coshocton Braves (perhaps modeled after the Coshocton High School Redskins). There is also a short ode to Paul Laurence Dunbar. Includes 15 illustrations by the Southern California artist Addison Johnson (1892-1986), drawn by him in the period 1917-1918.
