Excerpt from Reminiscences of a Long Life My Grandmother Cady lived with the young couple (my father and mother) during the first years of their married life. She was a lady of the Old school, very exact in her ideas of court esy and propriety, - likewise, an earnest and devout Christian. She was very ill at the time of my birth, but when not expected to live, prayed earnestly that she might be spared to see Pemberton's child live and do well, as I was extremely small and delicate. Contrary to all expectations, She lived to see me a very well-grown, active child of two or three years. She is buried in the old cemetery in New London. She had a good many beautiful things, in linen, silk dresses, Old-fashioned brocade and Silver; some specimens of the latter still remain in the family.

Excerpt from Reminiscences and Incidents of a Long Life This work is given to the public. At the earnest re quest of many of our most prominent ministers of the gospel, and a great multitude of lay members, amongst whomai have labored, either as pastor, or evangelist. Its preparation was commenced many years ago. A large portion of it was written Some time before Rev. Dr. J eter began the publication of his Recollections of a Long Life, in the Religious Herald, of Rich mond, Va. 50 that, although there may be some re semblance between his Recollections, and my Re miniscences, it must not be supposed that my book is a mere imitation of his. Its publication has been de layed to the present time, so that it might contain as nearly all of my life and labors as possible. I am now within a few weeks of seventy-nine years of age. I have been preaching the gospel fifty-nine years. And it is not likely that I will be able to perform much more public ministerial work. The incidents related in the book are mostly those that have fallen under my own observation. I trust they will be interesting and profitable to all who may read them. God has honored me greatly in my ministry and many thousands have been led to Jesus for salvation, through my humble in strumentality. To his adorable name be all the glory!

Excerpt from Reminiscences of a Literary Life The principal, and indeed besetting, dif ficulty against which I have had to struggle, has been the constant introduction, if not obtrusion, Of Self: I have been inevitably compelled to put that Self in the fore ground, as it were, Of every picture deli neated; but not, I trust, at the expense Of injuring the effect of the middle or back ground Of the composition. The reader will perhaps admit the impracticability of rendering the matter otherwise; but to con sole, Or to reconcile him, he may be assured that in most instances the middle or back ground will be found to be the most pic turesque or instructive portion Of the picture. To keep up the metaphor. Time, which Is Of so much use in mellowing the colours and blending the tints Of the pencil, seems to be not lessf'occa'sionally serviceable in harmonising the productlons of the pen. Much that may appear raw or glaring, in the following pages; may, in the course of a few revolving years.

Excerpt from Memories of a Long Life in Virginia I am now in my eightieth year, health delicate, and nearly blind, but my friends have urged me to write some of my early recollections. I have not kept my letters or written a diary, so I must depend on my memory, and things I have heard from others, principally from my father and mother.
