The three uncle and cousins
at the Lower House of the Linˇ¦s MansionˇXLin Chao-song, Lin Zi-quan
and Lin You-chun were called ˇ§Three Poets in Wufeng.ˇ¨ They were
with great literary talent and their poems were seen everywhere
at Lai Yuan. Lin Chi-xian left poems at Bu Chan Cabinet, Xiao
Xi Pond, Li Chi Dao, She Gong Shrine, Chui Liu Bridge, Xi Jia
Pavilion and Lin Yun Deng.
Lin Zi-quan composed ˇ§Idled Life in Wufengˇ¨ to describe the
allusions of Lai Yuan and also left poems at Li Club. Lin You-chun
composed ˇ§Stele of Iron Canonˇ¨ with others depicting Kao Pan

of Lin Ding-ban. He exposed his talent when he was young and
the neighborhoods praised his poems. When Taiwan was ceded to
Japan, he was order by his mother to evade to Tong Cheng in
China and then to Shanghai. He traveled famous mountains and
rivers and changed his thoughts in poems composition due to
the environment. His poems were grander. Upon returning to Taiwan,
