Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters to My Son, Vol. 1 MY dear bill: During the years you were in school at Charterhouse we kept up a regular and chummy correspondence. About the time you came home to Pittsburgh and entered the Institute of Technology, I happened to be called to Cincinnati to pay my last tribute of respect to an old friend, Mr. W. J. Murphy, vice-president of the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific Railway. On my arrival at Cincinnati almost the first indi vidual to be encountered was Professor F. Paul Ander son, who had come there from Kentucky on the same sad errand which brought me from Pennsylvania. Anderson and I were old and intimate friends, and we went to the funeral together and sat in the same pew. The Reverend Father conducting the service had been devotedly attached to Mr. Murphy who during his life was an excellent and deeply religious man, and had been active in church and charitable work. In delivering the funeral oration the reverend gentleman was greatly agitated, and got quite mixed up in his eulogy. As a matter of fact it had neither beginning nor ending, and the poor man's English was past human understanding.

Download or read book Interwoven written by Wadsworth Cecil Tuck and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Interwoven: Letters From a Son to His Mother These letters are sent out in book form by permission of Wadsworth's mother, knowing there are others whom they may benefit as well as the few who have been allowed to read them. There has been no attempt to change their form of expression, and but very little had to be eliminated because of its personal nature. The letters were written through a medium, her arm only being used for the transmission of words. The guide of the medium always first addressed the mother. Then followed short messages from the two daughters, who passed from earth life at a very early age, before the birth of Wadsworth. Usu ally, Wadsworth wrote after them, and now and then letters from others were added. There is a great charm in the chil dren's letters, as well as those of the guide; and it would have been a pleasure to have included them, for their development during the ten years could not fail to be of interest also. It was, however, deemed wise to limit the publication principally to Wadsworth's alone. My own work of character-reading has revealed to me a need that these letters can help to supply.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Punch's Letters to His Son My Lord, Take my word for it, you have greater reason to be proud of this Dedication than of your wand of office. Having read it, you may, for the remainder of your official life, walk in the eyes of all men at least half an inch higher. As, however, persons in your exalted rank are not always inevitably promoted to the eminence by the invincibility of their reasoning powers, or the subtlety of their wit, it may, perhaps, be necessary for me to explain to you why, from this day forward, you should enjoy an increase of official altitude. Few things irk a man more, than to know he has inflicted the heaviest, yet withal the sweetest obligation on another, who nevertheless obstinately remains in the most Stygian ignorance of the fact.

I have been trying to reconcile your maxims of life with the real thing, and I had to get busy and keep so. Reconciliation has not yet come, leastwise not so as you would notice it. I'm glad Ma got back safe to the stockyards, for when she left Cambridge that morning she didn't quite feel as if she would. I thought she had too large a roll to be travelling around the country with, and convinced her that she ought to leave all but $8 and her return ticket with me.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Punch's Letters to His Son, and Punch's Complete Letter-Writer These letters were originally addressed to, I verily believe, my own son.

In them, I have sought to paint men as they are - to sketch the scenes of the world as they have presented themselves 'to my observation - to show the spring of human motives - to exhibit to the Opening mind of youth the vulgar wires that, because unseen, make a mystery of common-place. I am prepared to be much abused for these epistles. They are written in lemon-juice. Nay, the little sacs in the jaws of the rattle-snake, wherein the reptile elaborates its poison to strike with sudden death the beautiful and harmless guinea - pigs and coneys of the earth, - these venomous bags have supplied the quill that traced the mortal sentences.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters to a Mother It must be remembered that children's manners are the fair and simple display of their feelings and views in all their truth. They do not, like grown people, have manners which do not correspond with their real characters, unless their education has been for this purpose. You have not fallen into this great error, that of teaching your child to appear what he is not. Some mothers, with an unaccountable thoughtlessness, will sacrifice their child's integrity to gratify the vain desire of having him appear well before others; thus, early planting in him the seeds of hypocrisy and a low ambition. But to return to the first subject, faults of manner in children. You may say, how are parents to guard against this evil, unless by giving them some direct instruction upon the subject?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From a Father to His Son Entering College Parts of the letters that make up this little book were read to my own college boys at the opening of a college year. They represent somewhat, but of course only a bit, of what I believe many a father would like to say to his own son, - as I to mine, - when he is entering the most important year of his college life the Freshman. Those who first heard them, even though obliged to hear, - seemed to suffer them gladly.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters to a School-Boy These letters were written to my son, fourteen years of age, while absent at school. A father who understands the temptations and moral perils that beset the pathway of a boy of that age at school, cannot conceal his solicitude if he would. These letters were designed to put the youth upon his guard, to make him watchful against temptation, to impress his mind with the importance and value of school-days, and to inspire his soul with the noblest aims. They express just what every thoughtful and anxious parent would say to his son at school. They treat of studies, books, games, sports, companions, duties, temptations, morals, and religion. As I deemed them necessary for my son, they may prove of some advantage to other men's sons; and so they are given to the public in this form.
