Excerpt from Autobiography of Adin Ballou: 1803 1890; Containing an Elaborate Record and Narrative of His Life From Infancy to Old Age; With Appendixes This volume is one of several prepared by its author and left in manuscript at his decease, the publication of which was duly provided for in specific clauses of his will. Its appear ance has been considerably delayed by preexisting engage ments and more urgent duties on the part of him to whose supervision the matter was entrusted, and by other circum stances that could not be easily avoided or overcome. Its con tents have been condensed somewhat from the original in order to bring them within desirable limits, but nothing has been eliminated that was deemed necessary to the completeness of the work as a portraiture of the man whose life, character, and career it was designed to outline and illustrate. Save in the particular indicated, the narrative, up to the time when the hand of the writer became incapable of further service by reason of the illness that terminated his mortal life, is given in his own way and mostly in his own language. The plan of the work, the arrangement of topics, its literary style and mode of expression, are distinctively his own, and bear the impress of his marked individuality.
