Excerpt from Journal of Emily Shore
The journal is in twelve octavo volumes, beginning July 5, 1831, when the writer wanted five months of her twelfth birthday, and ending June 24, 1839, a fortnight before her death. The number of pages in each volume is on an average a hundred and sixty. It is all through written in a printing hand, varying but little from first to last. As the facsimile of a page is given, I need only say that all the twelve volumes are executed in precisely the same style.
