Book Description
Excerpt from Pennsylvania Stories Most of the stories which make up this volume were written at a time when the author was nearer the golden age than he is at present. If he were to write them now he would make some changes, but as he is not at all certain that they would be improvements, he has decided to let the book stand as it is. Some of the allusions, also, such as to the manner of choosing the Honor men and of delivering the Valedictory, will seem strange to Pennsylvania men of the present day. But the larger number of the stories deal with Penn sylvania before Houston Hall, the Dor mitories, or Franklin Field came into being. On some other pen will devolve the task of writing of the University of to-day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
