other excellent story, one about w. q
Simns, the once very moderately IA

whom he found doing newspaper worls
in Charleston soon after the close Of
the Civil War. Trowbridge was there
in search of material for a book on
the condition of the South, and he ey-
pected to get a lot of information from,
Simms. The author of "The Yemas-
see" 'Pelayo," and half a hundred
other books now forgotten was ready
enough to talk. but as a fair specimen
of it all Trowbridge gives the follow
ing:
