Autobiography DITOIt : ■ IIA ' E BEEN ASKED to write something of ray history foi- your book. TiiK. Ph(I:nix. ami I jifladly respond. Let lue bejjin. lilie all other f reat writers, with my birth. But why mention my birth V Every one knows that I was born some time, and tliey know that I could not help it. eitlier. Hut I will tell you the dale, anyway, of my befjinninfjf. It was in 1842 that I bejran to e. ist. You see that I am quite old. Very few of my acquaintances in the South have lived as lonjjT as I.
