Excerpt from In the Days of Jefferson, or the Six Golden Horseshoes: A Tale of Republican Simplicity In the last book of the Creators of Liberty Series of historical fiction for young people I told the story of Sir William Phipps and some of the remarkable tales of old Boston at the intercharter period. In this volume I relate a story of a friendship formed by Thomas Jefferson in his boyhood, which greatly influenced the opinions which he gave to the world in the preamble of the Declaration of Independence. Thomas Jefferson's friendship with the young political enthusiast Dabney Carr was ideal, and is one of the most inspiring examples of noble association in boyhood which we have ever known. As a means of interpretation I have retold the wonder tale of the Wild Man of the Shenandoah, one of the most curious and remarkable stories of early pioneer history in Virginia.
