Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Auto-Biography With an Account of the Ancestry, Relatives, and Family of Anson Augustus Boyce I have been induced to prepare from memory most of the following pages of my biography, and after reading the pencil manuscript to my dear wife, to write out the same. I wish to leave to my children, grandchildren, and some personal friends a permanent record of my life, which has been an eventful and interesting one, in its example and influence. While I have made mistakes, and have been unfortunate in some business transactions, especially in real estate matters, I have preserved my integrity under many temptations, and have kept uniform good health by established habits of industry and regularity in living. Inheriting,as I have, an excellent constitution from my blessed and saintly mother, I have now almost reached the age of four score years, with a fair prospect that I may at least survive to the end of this century, if not beyond 1900. While I have earned probably $50,000 in the forty years of ray active business life, I have now not one tenth of this sum left, in my old age, but I have, as I trust, what is far more valuable, a good name.
