Excerpt from Alongside Being Notes Suggested by a New England Boyhood of Doctor Edward Everett Hale Mr. Hale's story opens with the interesting question of the development of human memory - How early can a child remember? The true answer to this ques tion would be, From the very moment of its birth the child begins to remember whatever is of use to it, in that stage of its being. If it were not so, it could not develop at all. How soon impressions can be made which will last through life, and can be consciously recalled at any moment, is quite a different affair.

Mr. Hale has often called mine an iron memory, but whatever metal it is made of, it holds only the impressions that pain, profound emotion or intense interest have stamped upon it.
