Présentation de l'éditeur :
For years I tried to induce myM other-inlaw to write a brief autobiographj for the benefit of herC hildren and Grandchildren. She received the proposition with no favour and, although she deplored the fact that her own Mother had done nothing of the sort, she would write out no part of the story of her life. A number of years since, however, I began, without her observation or knowledge, to take short-hand notes of certain conversations with her, and, invariably (with one single exception) wrote these out in full form within the hour my constant aim being to preserve her own forms of expression. In preparing these notes for the printer I have but thrown them somewhat into chronological order. Much may seem trivial and not worthy of permanent record, but yet, being for private circulation only, it may be pardoned as helping to bring past conditions to present remembrance while preserving for the family, reminiscences which some of its members do not wish to be quite forgotten.
