From the Foreword, "Upon the occasion of the seventieth anniversary of my birth, August 29th, 1926, my wife and I had the good fortune of assembling at our home, Deerland (1720 Peachtree Road, Atlanta, Georgia), all of our three children, ten grandchildren, three in-laws, and my sister, Mrs. Lucy Young, of Lexington, KY. All except the three in-laws, who are not Catholics, and the two youngest grandchildren, who have not made their first Communions, had the great privilege of attending 7:00 o'clock Mass at Sacred Heart Church, and receiving Holy Communion. The entire group including these young grandchildren and in-laws (except Nancy, the wife of Jack Spalding, Jr., who was indisposed), attended this Mass. Later in the day the entire party (19), including Nancy, had a birthday dinner together at Deerland and afterwards had a group picture taken. It was the desire of all that I should compile the available information touching my immediate family and prepare a sketch of my own life for the benefit of those who come after. I am now undertaking this and give this as the reason for my doing so." Very scarce. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 024159
