For the most wild, yet most homely narrative which i am about to pen, i neither expect nor solicit belief. mad indeed would i be to expect it, in a case where my very senses reject their own evidence. yet, mad am i not—and very surely do i not dream. but to-morrow i die, and to-day i would unburthen my soul. my immediate purpose is to place before the world, plainly, succinctly, and without comment, a series of mere household events. in their consequences, these events have terrified—have tortured—have destroyed me. yet i will not attempt to expound them. to me, they have presented little but horror—to many they will seem less terrible than barroques. hereafter, perhaps, some intellect may be found which will reduce my phantasm to the common-place—some intellect more calm, more logical, and far less excitable than my own, which will perceive, in the circumstances i detail with awe, nothing more than an ordinary succession of very natural causes and effects.
from my infancy i was noted for the docility and humanity of my disposition. my tenderness of heart was even so conspicuous as to make me the jest of my companions. i was especially fond of animals, and was indulged by my parents with a great variety of pets. with these i spent most of my time, and never was so happy as when feeding and caressing them. this peculiarity of character grew with my growth, and in my manhood, i derived from it one of my principal sources of pleasure.
