Book Description
Excerpt from Memories of by-Gone Days When my husband asked me to write the foreword to this little book I was glad, for no one except the author can feel so great an interest in this as I do. His articles and pictures for the outdoor magazines have been a pleasure to both of us, and it has long been my desire to see them gathered into a volume in permanent form. In Memories of Bygone Days there is no morbid tendency to disparage present joys, but simply a wholesome retrospect. Lulled in the countless chambers of the brain Our thoughts are linked by many a hidden chain. We may make of memory a blessing or a curse, just as we will. It is a stupendous thought that we are augmenting or decreasing future pleasure by the way we spend today. The only use we have for our past is to get a future out of it. All the pleasures of today One by one soon glide away To the golden shore of sweet long ago. Happy is that man whose memories are pleasant and profitable company. Alice kimball steele.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1883 edition. Excerpt: ...told me many people visited the grave, "because there was something particular about the lady's father." The text placed on it is singularly appropriate: Proverbs x. 7, "The memory of the just is blessed." OF OUR IRISH ANCESTORS, BURROUGHS AND NEWBURGH. UR earliest ancestor in this line is said to have come over with William the Conqueror, but I have no means of verifying this fact. The Newburghs are linked to the conquest through Baron Taillefer, William's Minstrel, as will be shown in their genealogical account which follows. In Burke's "History of Extinct and Dormant Baronetcies," it is stated of the lineage of Sir William Burroughs of Castle Bagshaw, that "the first settler of this family in Ireland is presumed to be descended from the Lincolnshire House of Burroughs which was elevated to the Peerage by Queen Elizabeth: he acquired a large landed property in the County of Wicklow." This by computation of dates must have been prior to A.D. i600. We have no trace of the name of this "first settler" nor of his property; should I obtain any information on these points it shall be added in the genealogical chapter. This unknown Burroughs' ancestor had a grandson named Thomas, who married Elizabeth Lewis, t the third in descent from whom also Thomas, was a Master in Chancery, and married Catherine, daughter of the Right Hon. Sir Henry Cavendish, Bart, (see Waterpark in Burke's Peerage) sometime between i750 and i760. Thomas Burroughs and Catherine Cavendish had two sons and one daughter (Mary). i. Francis, of whom I have no trace. 2. Lewis, my great-grandfather, who became Archdeacon of Deny. note.--Lord Burroughs (in some peerages Borough) was killed in the rising in Tyrone, circa, i590-97....
