The stories, anecdotes, scenes, in this collection, by whatever name they may be called, are mainly from my own hearing and personal observation; as to those which are not so, I have endeavored to state the facts correctly. These I am sure I do not forget, though I may not have named in every instance the exact year of their occurrence. I should have been pleased to delineate and describe at greater length the personages who figure in these reminiscences, as their actual appearance is unknown to many of the younger members of the bar; but the work would be too great. Moreover, I am not able to do it, currente calamo. Many of the anecdotes have been current among the senior members of the bar, and others have been told by me, and so have become known.
