Description

Excerpt from Colonel Rockinghorse: A Book of Paraphrases The chapters which follow owe their exist ence to no literary ambitions and the writer confesses to no pride of authorship. He has sought to picture with some accuracy a lov able and unusual personality; to preserve in some manner a record of homely philosophy and good sense. If the good Colonel's frail ties' appear it is because he would himself have preferred to be painted as he was, for he held no man to be worth writing of who was not worth the truth. The purpose of these pages will be served if the reader finds beneath eccentricities and old-school manner the real Colonel - very human but very wise, a simple, kindly gentleman.
