Excerpt from Reminiscences of Saratoga: Or Twelve Seasons at the "States" I was born in Charleston, South Carolina, on the ninth day of March, 1832, and was educated in the private schools of my native city. At the age of eighteen years, I was sent North by my father in the care of Beale and Craven, who owned and conducted, and were exhibiting in the city at that time, a panorama called "A trip to California by way of the Horn, returning by the isthmus of Panama." On the eve of my departure from home, my father placed in my hand a letter, containing most excellent advice, from which I append an extract: Charleston, March 16, 1850. Dear Joseph: As you are about leaving us, and perhaps forever, as life is uncertain, I cannot part with you without a few words of advice.
