Excerpt from T. De Witt Talmage as I Knew Him Our family Bible, in the record just between the Old and the New Testaments, has this entry: Thomas Dewitt, Born January '7, I was the youngest of a family of twelve children, all of whom lived to grow up except the first, and she was an invalid child. I was the child of old age. My nativity, I am told, was not heartily welcomed, for the family was already within one of a dozen, and the means of support were not superabundant. I arrived at Middlebrook, New Jersey, while my father kept the toll-gate, at which business the older children helped him, but I was too small to be of service. I have no memory of residence there, except the day of departure, and that only emphasised by the fact that we left an old cat Wth had purred her way into my affections, and separation from her was my first sorrow, so far as I can remember.

This is a buoy swung over the rocks. If it shall keep ship, bark, fore-and-aft schooner, or hermaphrodite brig from driving on a lee shore, "all's well."The book is not more for young men than old. The Calabria was wrecked "the last day out."Nor is the book more for men than women. The best being that God ever made is a good woman, and the worst that the devil ever made is a bad one. If anything herein shall be a warning either to man or woman, I will be glad that the manuscript was caught up between the sharp teeth of the type.
