Excerpt from A California Tramp and Later Footprints, or Life on the Plains and in the Golden State Thirty Years Ago: With Miscellaneous Sketches in Prose and Verse
As for the Later Footprints following A California Tramp, I will only say that among the prose sketches the article on John Burns should be worth attention as far as it furnishes facts proving the old man was a real militant in the Battle of Gettysburg; and as to those in rhyme, simply state that some of them had the questionable fame of newspaper republication.
