PREFACE.
ОглавлениеNearly all the dialogues in the present collection were originally contributed to a juvenile magazine in New York. Many of them have been used at exhibitions in different parts of the country, and met with a degree of favor which has led to their publication in this more permanent form. While intended for representation, it is hoped that readers may find them a source of entertainment.
It is proper to add that only the first dialogue belongs to me. The remainder are written by my sister, whose name appears with mine on the title-page. So far as these are concerned, my part has been merely that of an editor.
HORATIO ALGER, Jr.
New York, May 1, 1875.
