Download or read book Memory s Potlatches Classic Reprint written by Mrs. William Beckman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memory's Potlatches When the minutes of our lives are read the errors and omissions will stand out as do the high lights in paintings. Even as they do in life's pictures accentuating, and in a way showing they help in detail. And God, the great Judge, will know and understand, and in the summing up of mortal errors and omissions no objections will be offered. Memories. Memories are but shadows. Only one name in millions will be recalled after the lapse of centuries. The balm to the soul and the solace should be to live so that we may not be forgotten while yet alive. Remembrance after death counts as nothing to me. But to feel that those who knew me long ago, who knew me when I felt that I was born in the dawn of the world everything seemed so young and beautiful, might forget the world changed and worn, and I - while never forgetting the loved, through all the dead years - might meet in that "otherwhere" only strangers. This to me is the dread of death. Why should one be content to sit in the valley of ignorance rather than attain the hill-crests of wisdom where happiness is found, and the winds of contentment come in joyous exultant gusts, or in tender, sighing lullabies that bless the wayfarer.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Lapse of Memory, and Other Stories "What is wrong?" the young man asked hurriedly, putting his head out of the carriage window as the conveyance came suddenly to a standstill. The driver had pulled his steaming horses almost on their flanks, and then sat listening with close attention to some distant sound. The evening was advanced, and they had been driving rapidly along the lonely high-road in the hope of reaching their destination ere it got late. For a moment there was no reply, and he impatiently repeated his enquiry. The man responded slowly in the French dialect, as spoken by the people in the South of France.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of the Months: Second Series IT is probably a mere philological accident, devoid of moral significance, that, in the whole of the English version of the Old and New Testaments, there is not a single instance of the use of the substantives enjoy ment' and 'happiness.' Frequent mention of 'joy' and 'pleasure, ' but the first seems to verge too closely upon the boisterous, or at least the exuberant, and the other to have become tainted too grossly in human handling to express precisely the sensation stirred by weather fair or foul, by noble landscape, by the every day operations of nature, and by communion, oral or literary, with higher intellects than our own. One derives pleasure from, and feels joy in, all such things, but they inspire something incapable of interpretation by either of these terms; something which the French denote by bonhewr, and we, in defiance of obvious etymology, by 'happiness.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memory Corner So the little ladies went down the street with the child between them, leaving the Major standing star ing after them. It took the Major quite a long time to get over this thing, and to resume his walk; new happenings were rare in Little Place, Hampstead. The progress of the child between Miss Dorcas and Miss Betsy was marked by a certain large degree of ceremony. There was a crossing-sweeper who was in the habit of receiving a daily dole; and this time that dole had to be extracted from the purse of Miss Dorcas; a glance had to be exchanged over the head of the child between Miss Dorcas and Miss Betsy, and returned with a meaning look, as though Miss Dorcas said - I think you're right; she should learn these things early; and finally the money was given by the child to the crossing-sweeper.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of the Months: Sixth Series Were this volume of a quality to merit a second or explanatory title, that should be the mixture AS before. Like its predecessors in the series, it is no more than an expansion of notes made chiefly in the open air upon incidents and phenomena, for the explanation of which, when they puzzled me, I have had recourse to the writings or oral advice of competent authorities. But whereas note-books, irregularly kept, are not convenient as jogs to a treacherous memory, I have indulged in the luxury of having their contents set up in fair type.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of the Months I feel inclined to ask the printer to use red ink for the introduction to this volume, as serving to indicate how I blush at my temerity in laying before a too indulgent public a fifth bundle of these desultory notes. Nobody can be more conscious than myself of their ephemeral quality; but the public has itself to blame, if blame there be, because of the encouragement it has shown me to give a more or less permanent form to fleeting impressions, and to prose about matters one cannot but notice in moving through our beautiful land.
