The following diary was originally written in lead-pencil and in a book the leaves of which were too soft to take ink legibly. I have it direct from the hands of its writer, a lady whom I have had the honor to know for nearly thirty years. For good reasons the author's name is omitted, and the initials of people and the names of places are sometimes fictitiously given. Many of the persons mentioned were my own acquaintances and friends. When, some twenty years afterward, she first resolved to publish it, she brought me a clear, complete copy in ink. It had cost much trouble,. | Famous Adventures And Prison Escapes of the by Various 1 Famous Adventures And Prison Escapes of the by Various The Project Gutenberg EBook of Famous Adventures And Prison Escapes of the Civil War by Various This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever.
