Excerpt from Stories With a Moral: Humorous and Descriptive of Southern Life a Century Ago He was prominent not only as a literary man, but as an educator, having been president of several universities and also prominent in church circles. He wrote mostly in the spirit of pastime, or from fondness, and his writings are thus scattered in time and place. The following sketches are pre sented by the compiler after a tedious research in the old literary publications of prominence during the antebellum period, excepting one or two from his book, Georgia Scenes, that are brought in to complete the series. I have taken the liberty of changing slightly the names of one or two articles, so as to give them more appropriate titles and better appearance. I hope this will be justified by their effect and by the appreciation of those who like to read true delineation of human nature, in which art we think the author was a master.
