Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Memorials of Sarah Childress Polk: Wife of the Eleventh President of the United States Many sketches and articles concerning Mrs. Polk were written during the long period of her appearance in public, and also in the years when she lived in comparative seclusion. It is deemed fitting, however, that a more full and connected account of her life should now be given, not only to those who were her familiar friends and acquaintance, but to the many others in all parts of the country who, through a long period of years have looked up to her as a type of true womanhood. For this labor of love the writers have had abundant opportunity, in the course of a long acquaintance, to observe minutely her life, character, and methods of thought in weekly visits made to Polk Place, which for more than thirty years were interrupted only by sickness or by occasional absence from the city, together with free access to all the materials necessary to make up the present narrative. Mrs. Polk's example of womanly purity and dignity is a valuable legacy to the country. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1892 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER III. 1825-1833. R. POLK assiduously attended to the duties of his profession, practising law in the courts of Maury and the adjoining counties. During the long periods later in life when he was busily engaged with the cares of government, as member of Congress or Governor of Tennessee, and until he became President of the United States, the practice of his profession was only suspended. As soon as his term of office expired, he returned with ardor to the pursuit of his chosen calling. It was one of his maxims that a man should never abandon his profession, and if called away for a time, should return to it as soon as possible. His talents and force of character continued to win the esteem and confidence of his fellow-citizens; and when he became a candidate for Congress his active canvass was successful. In 1825 he was elected to represent the district composed of the counties of Giles, Maury, Lincoln, and Bedford, in the Congress of the United States. This was a high distinction at that time. The Hon. A. 0. P. Nicholson had always known Mr. Polk. "They were near neighbors, belonged to the same profession, were members of the same political family, and closely identified with the political conflicts of each successive year." In the following extract Judge Nicholson speaks of that whereof he knew: -- "At the election in 1825 Mr. Polk was chosen a member of Congress, after a most arduous and warmly contested canvass. In this canvass, the peculiar traits of his character were prominently developed. His competitors were men of age, experience, and intelligence. He was young, and comparatively inexperienced and unknown. It was a contest to be decided mainly upon personal popularity. The people were not then divided into two great...
