Preface
Eight years ago, "Quincy Adams Sawyer and Mason's Corner Folks" was
published, being heralded, truthfully, as the work of an "unknown
author." It met with favour from reviewers and the reading public. My
pleasantest souvenirs are hundreds of letters, from personally
unknown correspondents, wishing to know more about "Quincy" and the
other characters in my first story.
I know that few, if any, "sequels" are considered as interesting as
the original work, and an author, to a certain extent, tempts fate in
writing one. But if we visit friends and have a pleasant time there
seems to be no reason why another invitation should not be accepted.
So, if a book pleases its readers, and the characters therein become
their friends, why should not these readers be invited to renew their
acquaintance?
They may not enjoy themselves as much as at their first visit, but
that is the unavoidable result of repetition.
