Excerpt from Pebbles From the Path of a Pilgrim In the path of pilgrimage there are many rough and toilsome places, and often the wayfarer's feet are worn and wearied with the march, and bruised by pebbles that are scattered along the road. Yet some of these are precious stones, and are well worth preserving. And so I have gathered up a few of the pebbles in the path, and as the journey's end seems drawing on, I love to look over the treasures which memory has stored up, and show to my fellow travelers some of the precious things which I have found in the way that the Lord hath led me. This little book is a book of facts, not of fancies; of pebbles, not of fables. It has been the distinct intention, to embellish nothing and to invent nothing; but simply to represent facts as they actually occurred in the gone-by years. Many precious things have escaped from memory, and names and dates and places have sometimes been lost beyond recall; but the facts here related stand clearly out upon memory's pages, and in many instances they have been and can be confirmed by the testimony of two or three witnesses, by which every word shall be established.
