Excerpt from A Bundle of Fagots
The way that I have trod in pursuit of this work has been a very pleasant one, and the kindly hand that has guided mine throughout is that of Mr. D. G. Fenno, Managing Editor of the Philadelphia Times In the old studio days when life was young and hope was new, there was a dear friend whose easel sat beside my own, and together we planned our lives. But An other planned, and the lines diverged to meet again when Miss louise lewis made the illustrations which add so much to the interest of these pages.
