"It was while in St. Petersburg that he first took place in a police raid. 2 Shortly after returning to the United States in 1898 he received an invitation from railroad executive L. F. Loree to return to tramping and spy on the tramps using the railroad as well as the private policemen who were supposed to be enforcing the anti-tramp rules. After a month of this he decided he could do the job while riding in comfort as a passenger. After several years of experience as a vagrant he had published Tramping with Tramps in 1899 a picaresque study. His further works dealing with the lower and criminal classes include The Powers that Prey 1900 a collection of short stories written in collaboration with Alfred Hodder writing pseudonymously as Francis Walton Notes of an Itinerant Policeman 1900 The World of Graft 1901 a volume of short stories and The Little Brother 1902 his only sustained attempt in fiction. His name is perpetuated in the annals of fiction as the dedicatee of Jack London's The Road. He died in Chicago. " from Wikipedia; B&W Photographs; 365p. pages; Put in biography. Pictured 4/16/23 .

John Cobb of Hardwick Massachusetts she died 7 June 1843."He was a man of naturally moral fibre passionately fond of music and proficient in its art and science his violincello was for a half century a great factor in the village church choir and a source of great pleasure and elevation in the home circle. He loved good literature and had a keen sense of the beautiful and pure in good books and cultivated a fine literary taste up to the measure of his opportunity and means." This book gives both biographical material and thoughts on his life as a deacon. The book includes information on the early days of the area of Georgia Vermont. Interestingly one of the sons responsible for this memorial book became famous for his introduction of Nitrous Oxide for use in dental procedures: "Intially nitrous oxide laughing gas was exhibited by Gardner Quincy Colton as a novelty demonstrating its mirth-provoking effects. It's value as a dental anaesthetic was recognized by Dr. Horace Wells who adopted its use in his dental practice though its use did not spread at that time. Eventually it was Colton though not a dentist himself who popularized its use in dentistry to replace the more risky method of using chloroform and ether. Acceptance in the profession was slow but eventual Colton gained fame from his efforts."; 60p. pages; Pictured 4/16/23 . A. M & G. Q. Colton hardcover
