Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of My Life: An Autobiography In looking back on my past life, amidst my many regrets there is one which often comes over me - that I have kept no record of days gone by. Had I done so, although there might have been little to interest others, there would have been much that would have been both interesting and profitable to myself. And further, it might have served to recall to those near and dear to me the recollection of many events, on which they would gladly dwell.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Days of My Life: An Autobiography And I was passing along, as I always did, quickly and, per haps, with a firmer and a steadier step than was usual to girls of my years, swinging in my hand a bit of briony, which, for the sake of its beautiful berries, I was carrying home, but which stood a good chance of being destroyed before we got there not taking leisure to look much about me, thinking of nothing particular, with a little air of the superior, the lady' of the manor, in my independent carriage - a little pride of proprietor ship in my firm footstep. I was going home - when there suddenly appeared two figures before me, advancing on my way. I say two figures, because in our country everything stands out so clear upon the great universal background of sky, that I could not so truly say it was a man and a boy, as two dark outlines, clearly marked and separated from the low, broad level of the country, and the arch of heaven, which now approached upon me. I cannot help an unconscious estimate of character from the tricks of gesture and carriage, which, perhaps, could not have been so visible anywhere else, as here, upon this ﬂat, unbroken road. One of these figures was a stooping and pliant one, with a sort of sinuous twisting motion, noiseless and sidelong, as if his habit was to twist and glide through ways too narrow to admit the passage of a man; the other form was that of a boy - a slight figure, which, to my perfect health and girlish courage, looked timid and hesitating the brightness of the sky behind cast the faces of the strangers into shadow - but my eye was caught by the unfamiliar outlines they were strangers, that was sure.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of My Life and Work It has been said with truth that the race problem requires the patient and wise co-oper ation of the North and the South, of the white people and the Negroes. It is encouraging to see how one true, wise, prudent, courageous man can contribute far more than many men to the comprehension and settlement of questions which perplex the highest capabilities. Great eras have often revolved around an individual; and, so, in this country, it is singular that, contrary to what pessimists have predicted, a colored man, born a slave, freed by the results of the War, is aecom plishing so much toward thorough pacification and good citizenship.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Working Woman's Life: An Autobiography I have had frequent misgivings while writing this autobiography, for I know of no particular reason why it should have been written; and it has appeared very egotistic to do it. But many friends have expressed a wish that I should myself write the story of my life, and in some respects it has been a pleasant task. I have found it an interesting life to live, but I do not know whether it will be interesting to read. My hope is that it may be useful, especially to girls and women who are timid as to the years before them and the duties they have to face. We change our mottoes as we proceed through life. Mine is now, Let not your heart be troubled but through all my working years my favourite was, I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me. My story is one of God's goodness and mercy; if it may inspire hope and trust in some who are beginning their lives, to God be all the glory.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Autobiography, Vol. 1 IT has seemed to me that a natural history of myself would be a useful accompaniment to the books which it has been the chief occupation of my life to write. In the following chapters I have attempted to give such a natural history. That I have fully succeeded is not to be supposed; but perhaps I have succeeded partially. At any rate, one significant truth has been made clear - that in the genesis of a system of thought the emotional nature is a large factor: perhaps as large a factor as the intel lectual nature.

I know very little of my family history. The parish register of Axbridge in Somersetshire would probably give some information, but it would only be the record of an undistinguished family of yeomen farmers, one of whom, my great-grandfather, was living at that village in the later years of the eighteenth century.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Memories of My Life As the history of any period, in order to be of interest and value, must embrace not only its public events, but a great variety of social, industrial and political features illustrative of its life, it is of ad vantage to him who would write it to gather all the material of the latter kind within his reach when preparing his work. Even the reminiscences of one whose individual life contains nothing of value may be useful for such a purpose. I have written some of mine on that assumption, and not because they contain any unusual or impor tant facts, or literary merit. While there has been a large increase of biograph ical and auto-biographical writing of late years the previous lack of it in North Carolina has been keenly felt by all who have undertaken to preserve the story of her civilization.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Inner Life: Being a Chapter in Personal Evolution and Autobiography T would have been more appropriate and becoming, perhaps, had this Autobiography, if published at all, been deferred to a later period of my life, but a threatened failure of eyesight has left me no alternative. In the uncertainty as to my being able to continue the research necessary for the remaining volumes of my History of Intellectual Development, ' I felt that the central chapters of this work in which I trace the evolution of Modern Thought down to the present day, would sufficiently represent my views of this portion of the subject to give some kind of unity to the whole, in case the larger work were not completed. I am not without hope however, that the progress of the disease may be so far arrested that I may still be able to complete my larger history in detail. In the meantime the present book will serve to draw together more tightly than would be possible in the larger work, views on the world-problem and on Life which lie scattered through earlier volumes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories and Impressions: 1831-1900 The present volume has not the character of an Autobiography; nor, indeed, could its author plead any of the usual excuses for publishing a Memoir of himself. It is not the life-history of one who has attained to eminence; it is not the record of an eventful career; it contains few, if any, graphic pictures of remarkable scenes or remarkable men. Since I am not one who has kept a diary, some noteworthy incidents have doubtless escaped my recollection; while, on the other hand, I have been under no temptation to insert extracts on matters of slight importance.
