Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Recollections of a Happy Life
We received but little encouragement. Mrs. Hobson, in full health and vigor not withstanding her seventy odd years, was actively engaged in various pursuits, both grave and gay. She had not time she had nothing of interest to say - there are so many memoirs not worth reading.
Finally, Mrs. Richard Aldrich conceived the happy idea of putting into verse a Peti tion, a petition which, signed by twenty-four of Mrs. Hobson's friends, was sent to her, in the spring of 19073.
