Memoirs were written by Mrs. Smith for her own children, and the daughter of her sister Mrs. Gardiner, with no thought but to interest them in those scenes of her early life which she recalled so vividly, and has narrated with such lively simplicity. They were privately printed by subscription in order to make them more accessible to those whose interest in the actors and the deeds of that past time is a personal one; and in this form they have proved so attractive that the writers daughter, Mrs. King, has consented to publish them. The fact that their issue was at first a private one will account for the closeness of the printed text; which is, however, so clear that it is hoped the reader will not be deterred by it from a perusal of the volume. Mrs. Smith began writing her recollections in 1845, during ;i visit of some length to A vranches, and concluded the portion here printed in 1867. That they should contain some errors find inaccuracies is natural in the circumstances; but these are of small importance, and the picture of the writers life and surroundings is unmistakably a genuine and faithful reflection of her impressions. Mrs. Smith lived to a great age, dying on the 16th November 1885 in her 89th year. Her sight began to fail in 1867, and for a time she was totally blind, till an operation for cataract restored the use of one eye; with this exception she had full possession of her faculties to the last, reading, writing, sewing, and maintaining her keen interest in the questions of the day; in the latest page of her journal, written a month before her death, she alludes to the political situation with all her old vigour of style.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgot
