PREFACE

The things that I saw, that seemed worthy of note, I have set downwithout prejudice to the little town of Brownsville, which has grownsince I was there. Let no citizen of the place pursue me vindictivelybecause I found him less interesting than Stumpy. And let no one’s civicpride suffer because I noted in the town only what seemed to mepicturesque. I have no quarrel with Brownsville. I got away from there.What I saw while there seems worth the telling. Much of it I have toldin the Sunday Sun. That, and more will be found in this book.

David A. Curtis.
