My Wayward Pardner: Or My Trials With Josiah, America, the Widow Bump, and Etcetery (Classic Reprint)

Josiah that I guessed I would write a book about several things and wimmen. Says I, My mind has been dretful agitated lately about that certain lot of female wim men that are sufferin more than tongue can tell. Why, says I, when I think of their agony and wrongs, it fairly makes the blood bile in my veins. I love the female sect, says I firmly, I am one of em myself. Says he not wantin me to say a word about it, Let em write about it themselves. Says I, Josiah Allen, do you remember when you fell down through the barn and broke your limb, and most broke your other leg? Yes, says he, but what of it? Says I, What if I had stood still in the buttery winder, and hollered at you to help yourself, and if you was in pain to get out of it? Well, says he, let em get some of their own folks to do the writin then. They haint none of your folks, nobody wont expect nothin of you. He had reasons for not wantin' me to tell all I knew about certain things.
