Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Ventures in Common Sense
While the editor was arguing angrily with a number of men about the iniquity of the circus, and the men were laughing merrily, I told Jim I intended to make a sneak, and see the circus, if I died for it. J im was a good boy, and warned me not to, but when he saw I was determined, be accompanied me in the wild run we made for liberty.
When we reached the street, we found the circus had not yet arrived, so we set out with a number of other boys to meet it. We knew it was to come in on The F alls road; every boy knew that, somehow, so we travelled that way until we became suspicious, and turned back. Reaching town, tired and hungry, we found the circus had arrived by another road, and that the parade, 'and the afternoon performance, were over.
