Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Three Score and Ten in Retrospect: I, Boyhood Days; II, Reminiscences of School Experiences From Twenty to Seventy-Two I have known Mr. Hooper for more than twenty-five years. During this time his work has been in the immediate vicinity of Syracuse, and I have seen him frequently, in school and out. He is not only a man of scrupulous veracity, who would cut off his right hand sooner than make an intentional mistatement, but he is also characteristically methodical and accurate, - as likely as any man I ever knew to be exact in his memory of incidents that happened even fifty years ago. This narrative therefore seems to me of decided historical value. Many of the incidents here given he had told me from time to time, and it was at my suggestion that he gathered here these reminiscences of a long, an honorable, and a useful career. There are few living men able to give us truthful pictures of the school and home life of half a century ago, and the community should be grateful to Mr. Hooper for thus putting on record much that otherwise would have been forgotten and lost.
