Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Days of My Life, Vol. 3 of 3: An Autobiography It was a little square, two-storied house, stand ing by itself on a little grassy knoll, at one side of the village; the small inclosure in front was but two strips of bare grass, with fantastic flower-beds cut in the turf, divided by a paved path leading to the door. There were no flowers, but only a shabby little evergreen in each of the mounds of soil, and the front of the house was festooned with ragged garlands of the tra veller's joy, a favourite creeper, as it seemed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of My Life, Vol. 2 HE intense excitement of the anti-slavery reform, then approaching its crisis, made the pastoral relation, at that time, a most difficult one. The South was solid in its determination to maintain slavery at any cost. It scorned the idea of being limited to any territory, or of being kept within any bounds Robert G. Toombs of South Carolina declared on the floor of Congress, that he would yet call the roll of his slaves on Bunker Hill, and that the slave states would brook neither interference nor dictation. It began to be evident to 'the most superficial observer, that the country must eventually become all free or all slave, and, as the North had developed hostility toward this relic of barbarism that could not be silenced, and would not sur render, men and women alike looked forward to the future with anxiety, and wondered what the end would be.

Of the subalterns, two were sick and absent, and the other twain sent from head-quarters, being, as the colonel considered, unsuited for the corps. One drank water, kept Lent, played the fiddle, and professed anti duelling principles the other, because the com ruander disliked him for some cause with which we were unacquainted; he was, they said, re served and unsocial, and, from his brusque man ners and cynical disposition, generally unp0pu lar.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Life, Vol. 1 of 2 The contents of these volumes have been written down directly from my dictation, over a period of several years, by my friend and wife, who wished me to tell her the story of my life. It was the desire of both of us that these details of my life should be accessible to our family and to our sincere and trusted friends; and we decided therefore, in order to provide against a possible destruction of the one manuscript, to have a small number of copies printed at our own expense. As the value of this autobiography consists in its unadorned veracity, which, under the circumstances, is its only justification, there fore my statements had to be accompanied by precise names and dates; hence there could be no question of their publication until some time after my death, should interest in them still survive in our descendants, and on that point I intend leaving directions in my will.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Story of My Life, Vol. 1 IN the autumn of 1878, the desire to comfort and amuse one of my kindest friends during hours of wearing pain and sickness induced me to begin writing down some of the reminiscences of my life. As almost all those who shared my earlier interests and affections had passed away, I fancied at first that it would be im possible to rescue anything like a connected story from the great shipwreck of Time. But solitude helps remembrance and as I went on opening old letters and journals with the View of retracing my past life, it seemed to un fold itself to memory, and I found a wonderful interest in following once more the old track, with its almost forgotten pleasures and sorrows, though often reminded of the story of the old man who, when he heard for the first time the well-known adage, Hell is paved with good intentions, added promptly, Yes, and roofed with lost opportunities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Story of My Life One day I was sitting on the doorstep putting stones in a bucket when Bonnie slammed the door on me. I no sooner opened it than she banged it on my thumb and even locked it. I must have cried for she had to let me in, but I did not complain much, if any, although my thumb was rather painful, as a piece of the skin was loose. I knew where the medicine and other things were kept, so I helped myself to them, and even dried dishes sometimes, and did what I could for my sisters. My father used to poison or trap wolves, so he skinned some of them, and kept their hides under the bed. I was afraid of them, thinking they were alive, and yet I would run there just for curiosity, so mamma tried to break me of that habit when she got tired of it, but failed. So papa cured me by throwing a sheep skin at me. It scared me nearly to death, and because I was crying so much one of my parents ran at me on purpose to frighten me all the more. One night mamma and I were standing by the fence watch ing papa milk the cows when one of them fought with her horns right in front of me as if she wanted to hook me. I tore my dress in getting away from the fence just as papa opened the gate, and as we ran to the house I imagined that I felt it bang and that we were being chased by that cow. Another time some cows came near our house for shade, and I knew it by their odor, so I put several chairs around one of my sisters, and jumped on the bed where mamma was rest ing herself after a hard day's washing. My conscience did not feel good, so I laid her on the bed with us. I was not afraid of dogs or cats or fowls, but I felt so strangely whenever a turkey or hen snatched my cookie out of my hand in such a mysterious way before I could catch it.
