Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Pic Nic Papers, Vol. 1 of 3
The history of the following pages is told in very few words.
The premature death of a young publisher in the prime and vigour of his years, before he had had time or opportunity to make any provision for his wife and infant children, and at the moment when his prospects were brightest and the diffi culties of his enterprise were nearly overcome, inspired some of those who had known him per sonally, or had been connected with him in busi ness, with an earnest desire to render some assist ance to his widow and orphans.
