Who was James Matthews Legaré?

James Matthews Legaré 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. Orta-undis means "sprung from water".
