Sketches From Memory
Excerpt from Sketches From Memory
As to the illustrations, they are for the most part also sketches, shorthand notes from nature, or care ful studies for backgrounds of 'pictures, portraits, landscapes, figures, &c., which illustrate my story, and give relief, I hope, to the printed pages.
And now, dear reader, I must leave my Sketches in your hands, and as they are written without malice, and, indeed, with the kindest motives, I trust you also will treat them with kindness.
