Excerpt from The Improvement Era, Vol. 3: February, 1900He went into another part of the house and soon returned with a parcel wrapped in a piece of old, brown Wrapping paper, and fastened with an old, tow string. I judge the manuscript to be six and a half inches wide and eight inches long, and about an inch in thickness. Hold ing the parcel before my eyes, he said: This is just as I received it, and as it has been in my possession for over forty years, tied with that same string. You see that pencil writing? That was written there before it came into my hands.This writing in pencil, quite legible, was Manuscript Story. But, continued he, this writing in ink I foolishly wrote there myself very recently, I suppose I ought not to have done it, but with that exception it is just as it came into my hands, and as it has remained for over forty years.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
