Excerpt from Sketches and Reminiscences of the Radical Club of Chestnut Street, Boston NY details of meetings or discussions which have had a marked influence, or have indicated the growth and tendencies of public opinion, cannot but be interesting. This conviction has led to the collection of some of the essays given at the Chestnut Street Club, with a sketch of the discussions which followed their reading. The volume has been made up from the recollections of friends, from notes and reports made of the meetings and While I fear it will be found fragmentary and imper foot, still it is my hope that the words here preserved of many distinguished members of the Club, some of whom have now passed from among us, may prove not only of interest but of value to the reader.
