Excerpt from "Hail and Farewell!": "The material naturally falls into two main divisions. Part I, 'Franklin Square,' deals with the old establishment at Nos. 327-335 Pearl Street, New York City, and with the members of its executive, editorial, and literary staff. Part II, 'A Portrait Gallery,' concerns itself with the men and women, in their various vocations and professions, with whom I was on friendly and often intimate terms for over fifty years of my active life.".
