Synopsis

Book by Charles W Jay

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

There is generally a feeling of sympathy with such reader toward such author, which strengthens with the progress of perusal, until it ripens into the desire of a more minute knowledge of the outer and inner life of him who has so interested them. Knowing that this little book, the child of my later years, will be kindly received and welcomed by a large number of men, and a far greater number of women the latter always permitting the flood of sympathy, in which eddies the worth less driftwood of sentiment, to overflow the shallower depths of the brain I proceed at once to unlock myself to all such as may be under the suggestions of curiosity, or the promptings of interest, for a glance or a stare at the elephant, as he swings his inky trunk through the coming pages. Like all truly great and eminent men at least in this our own country I was born of poor but respectable parents. My father was a shoemaker, and waxed poorer and poorer with the yearly increase of his family, until he could hardly make both ends meet. His sole means of support was his trade, at which he hammered away day and night, in order to get the upper hand of the hard necessity that tacks dall his energies.
