Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Adventures of Timias Terrystone While the records of my ancestry and birth are a blank, the history of my childhood is very meager. My earliest recollections are of being under the care of a middle-aged, portly, good-natured woman, who assured me often, and no doubt truthfully, that she was not of my kindred, and who always wept when she spoke of the fate that befell my mother. My protector was a comedy actress in one of the metropolitan theatres, and I had fallen into her charitable and willing hands when only a little more than two years of age. My mother, coming whence no one knew, had joined the company, had strug gled many months with ill-health, and had died uttering no word of her history. A few friends gave her sepulchre, and I, the helpless waif left behind, was charitably adopted by good Mrs. Tobey, whose jovial, rubicund visage I shall remember with pleasure to the end of my life.
