Présentation de l'éditeur
Bedott Papers now for the first time collected, were first widely introduced to public notice through the columns of Neal s Saturday Gazette. I ts editor Joseph C. Neal, the well known author of the Charcoal Sketches, was struck by the originality and clearness of the first of the series, when submitted among the mass of contributions, which crowd a weekly newspaper. It was scarcely in print before the authors name began to be asked by subscribers, casual readers, and brother editors, some of whom attributed them to Mr. Neal himself. They could scarcely be made to believe that sketches so full of humor, so remarkable for minute observation of human nature, were the work of an unpracticed pen. A correspondence arising in this way between the editor and his unknown contributor, Mr. Neal learned that the Widow Bedott, as she was familiarly called, had not even entered the holy estate, but was still the center of a happy home circle, in Whitesboro ,N ew York.
