Dedication
To My best Friend, and kindest Critic, My Husband.
Foreword
Most of the tales in this little book have been printed before. “A Mountain Woman” appeared in Harper’s Weekly, as did “The Three Johns” and “A Resuscitation.” “Jim Lancy’s Waterloo” was printed in the Cosmopolitan, “A Michigan Man” in Lippincott’s, and “Up the Gulch” in Two Tales. The courtesy of these periodicals in permitting the stories to be republished is cordially acknowledged.
