Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Reminiscences of a Very Old Man, 1808-1897
This suggested to Mr. Janvier an amusing idea. He drew up an obligation that I would within one year from date begin writing my reminiscences. He placed the pen in my hand and I signed it. He then cut it in two diagonally in a waved line from one corner to the other. There, that 's an indenture. You may have one half. I shall keep the other, and will hold you to it.
