Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Life and Poems of Clarissa Tucker Tracy
Three or four years before Mrs. Tracy died, one day when we were having one of our good old-time visits at her home, she said to me suddenly in her quick, crisp way: Mrs. Merrell, I want you to write my biography. I know my old boys and girls will want to have it. She took me so completely by surprise, that before I could gather my wits together to make a fitting reply, she went on briskly: I don't want you to write it before I go. After I leave will be time enough. All my papers are in this drawer here, and you are to take possession of them as soon as I am done with them. It is singular that she never referred to her death but in terms like the above, and rarely even in this way.
