Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from Abraham Page, Esq.: A Novel I am perfectly aware that to pretend to have found the manuscript in some unlikely place, or to have had it left to one by last will and testament, is an old and hackneyed method of introducing a story; but if it be true in any case, the fact should not be ignored for that. The first time I ever saw Mr. Page was when he made a visit to my father, his old friend and schoolmate. It was on the occasion of his flight from the persecutions of Miss Sophia Walker, which he has mentioned in his Life; at least I judge it was at that time; for, although I never heard of Miss Walker until I saw Mr. Page s manuscript, he never made but the one visit to our part of the country. I was then a very small boy, but remember perfectly the impression made upon me by the old gentleman. He was, I suppose, forty-eight or fifty years of age, and was of medium height, very neat in his person and brisk in his movements. He had mild, benevolent, gray eyes, a rather prominent Roman nose and a broad and high forehead. But what attracted me to him was his great simplicity and fondness for children. For hours at a time he would play with me and my sisters (often at games he must have invented, for I have never seen them since) or would tell us the most comical and wonderful stories.
