Excerpt from Scenes in the Eventful Life of Mary W. Few Richardson T IS hardly probable that any word of mine will add to the interest of this personal narrative, and yet I deem it a privilege, as a friend of many years, to pen this prefatory note for the author of this sketch. I have read the story in manuscript, not as a critic, to amend or change its phraseology, butas a friend in sympathetic mood; and I have been lifted and depressed as the varied and striking experiences of life were here unfolded.
