that she was going to raise a regiment and go for him. Peace followed
promptly. 3. In the year 1867 she published a book. 4. In the year 1868 she went to California overland, by railroad, alone. 5. In the year 1869 she attended a lecture by OLIVE LOGAN, and further showed her fearless nature by embracing Miss LOGAN tempestuously, and offering to marry her. 6. At various times during her career she has received and successfully done battle with 14,624 proposals of marriage, 14,600 of which were made to her _in the city of Chicago!!!_ These evidences of her courage are sufficient to show what she is equal to, under any emergency. We are now waiting to hear of a seventh act of bravery on her part which will distance all the above; when she shall have announced that she is prepared to lecture on "CHARLES DICKENS" she will have given the last convincing proof that she is equal to _anything_ terrible. (Should Mr. PUNCHINELLO object that this biographical sketch is desultory and "wandering," let him try, himself, to write the biography of a lady who is incessantly and frantically roaming from one end of the country to the other, and if he don't wander it will be a wonder.) * * * * * IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!--HEIRS WANTED! |
