A GENTLEMAN VAGABOND AND SOME OTHERS BY F. HOPKINSON SMITH NEW YORK GROSSET & DUNLAP PUBLISHERS 1895 INTRODUCTORY NOTE There are gentlemen vagabonds and vagabond gentlemen. Here and there one finds a vagabond pure and simple, and once in a lifetime one meets a gentleman simple and pure. Without premeditated intent or mental bias, I have unconsciously to myself selected some one of these several types,—entangling them in the threads of the stories between these covers. Each of my readers can group them to suit his own experience. F.H.S. NEW YORK, 150 E. 34TH ST.
