Book Description
Excerpt from Recollections of a Varied Career It may seem presumptuous for a man of ordinary talent, such as I esteem myself, to write his Memoirs; the only good excuse, perhaps, being that his experiences have been out of the ordinary. I began to write simply with the view of leaving a record for my descendants; but as I wrote, it seemed to me that few lives had covered as wide a field as my own. My public experience, - as a soldier in time of war, a Member of Congress while great questions were under consideration, and a diplomat, also in war time, - would be hard to equal in variety; and my private life covers invention in important lines, and a business career, commencing as an employee and closing as the head of a large industrial establishment, perhaps the largest in Massachusetts that is owned by its managers. I venture to believe that a portion of the great public may be interested in my story; but if not, no harm is done, as the book will serve the purpose for which it was originally intended.

Book Description
Excerpt from My Recollections I have been often asked whether I put together the recollections of my life from notes jotted down from day to day. To tell the truth I did, and this is how I began the habit of doing so regularly. My mother - a model wife and mother, who taught me the difference between right and wrong - said to me on my tenth birthday: "Here is a diary." (It was one of those long-shaped diaries which one found in those days at the little Bon Marche, not the immense enterprise we know now.) "And," she added, "every night before you go to bed, you must write down on the pages of this memento what you have seen, said, or done during the day. If you have said or done anything which you realize is wrong, you must confess it in writing in these pages. Perhaps it will make you hesitate to do wrong during the day."

Book Description
Excerpt from Recollections of a Player These reminiscences, and although wishful to heed the request of his children, - that he would make for them, as a precious leg acy, some account of his life, - it was not till strongly urged by the present writer that he consented to undertake this task. Such persuasion was warranted, for no actor was ever more genuine than Mr. Stoddart, and no professional life was ever more exemplary than his of the ad mirable virtues of perseverance, self-de nial, sincerity, fidelity, purity, and truth. The counsel upon which the veteran finally acted was that he should write freely, as if in a letter to an old friend, whatever of the past he might happen to remember; and in so writing he has made old days to live again, and voices to Speak once more that have long been silent, and faces to smile upon us that have long been cold.

Book Description
Excerpt from Recollections After Fifty Years This album is my contribution to the semi-centennial celebration held this year. It was here that I launched out in business for myself and I owe much to the pioneers who helped me to find myself. Sometimes I wish that I had spent fifty years here instead of five. By remaining here I would have gathered less of material things and less of stress and heartbreak. Several hundred copies of this little work have been printed for free distribution and I trust that these pictures from a memory extending into the dim past may find a place among your cherished souvenirs.

Book Description
Excerpt from My Private Note-Book, or Recollections of an Old Reporter The duties of the Reporter are easily defined. His chief care, if he belongs to the dismounted, is to collect full particulars of the striking incidents of the day, and to present them in such a form as will eu sure common insertion in the morning journals, and a sufficient pecuniary return to himself. This brief de scription of a class will suffice. The regular report has higher aims, for which he requires higher educational qualifications. His greatest value is, perhaps, centred in his ability to report the parliamentary debates in scholarly style, and with scrupulous accuracyfi [i have gone through more than a quarter of a century of this life of hard, inadequately paid labour, and speak feel ingly on the subject. The very few prizes that the press oeers to its members, are not for the reporter, whether regular or dismounted, and when his cvertasked energies are exhausted by time or sickness - if all his re sources are confined to the press, his fate is lamentable indeed. I could write a painful chapter on this theme but this is not the medium through which public sym pathy can be best enlisted.

Excerpt from Memories of My Life: Being My Personal, Professional and Social Recollections as Woman and Artist MY mother was fond Of travelling she would go from Spain to England, from London to Paris, from Paris to Berlin, and from there to Christiania; then she would come back, embrace me, and set out again for Holland, her native country. She used to send my nurse clothing for herself and cakes for me. To one of my aunts she would write Look after little Sarah I shall return in a months time. A month later she would write to another of her sisters: Go and see the child at her nurse's; I shall be back in a couple of weeks. My mother's age was nineteen I was three years Old, and my two aunts were seventeen and twenty years of age; another aunt was fifteen, and the eldest was twenty-eight; but the last one lived at Martinique, and was the mother of six children. My grandmother was blind, my grandfather dead, and my father had been in China for the last two years. I have no idea why he had gone there.
