Josephine Young Case

The wife of Everett Case, President of Colgate University. JOSEPHINE YOUNG CASE has written this moving and evocative account of a wartime commencement such as was taking place on campuses all over this country a decade ago. There is idealism here, as there is in her poetry. She is the author of At Midnight On the 31st of March, Written in Sand, and Freedom’s Farm, published by Houghton Mifflin Company.

“Freedom’s Farm" was written in honor of the seventieth birthday of the poet’s father, Owen D. Young, farmer and distinguished American. It will form the title piece of a new volume of Mrs. Case’s poems, soon to be published by Houghton Mifflin Company. Her first book, a long narrative poem, At Midnight on the 31st of March, appeared in 1938.
