Excerpt from Acrostics, Serious, Religious, Sentimental, Mirthful, Etc
These acrostics are written on various lines of thought - religious, patriotic, conjugal love, frivolous witticisms, and I trust some comfort, mirth, jollity, etc., will be the reward of their readers; and these will be numerous, I hope.
Many feminine names in common use have been employed, and I feel certain the young men will readily find, with slight modification, perhaps, something appropriate for his "best girl's" auto.
My object in writing this book was to please my friends and enable myself to make a living.
