Excerpt from Haliburton, the Man and the Writer
The books which narrate the sayings and doings of the celebrated Samuel Slick, of Slickville, are, in their chronological order, The Clockmaker, The At taché, Wise Saws, and Nature and Human Nature. Two others, The letter-bag of the Great Western and The Bubbles of Canada, are also attributed to Mr. Slick as their author, as may be gathered from the last letter in the former and from the dedication of the latter work. But Sam Slick does not personally figure in either.
