Excerpt from Mississippi Scenes: Or Sketches of Southern and Western Life and Adventure, Humorous, Satirical, and Descriptive, Including the Legend of Black Creek Many Of the scenes purporting to be laid in Missis sippi will be found equally applicable elsewhere in the South - particularly those illustrative Of negro character and incident. I have written, it will be seen, as a journalist or sketcher, not as an essayist or a politician. Abler pens than mine have long since fulfilled this last character. In conclusion, I can assure my readers that they may rely on the truth and accuracy Of the descriptions found in the following pages; and while, doubtless, much is embellished, there are many who will be able to pro nounce most they meet with O'er true.
