My father, at the death of his father, was six years old, and he grew up without education. He moved from Kentucky to Indiana when I was seven. We wild area, with many bears and other wild animals still in the woods. I grew up there. There were some so-called schools, but what was required of a teacher never went beyond “reading, writing, and adding”. If a stranger supposed to understand Latin happened to live for a time in the area, he was looked on as a wizard（奇才）. There was simply nothing to excite a desire for education. Of course, when I grew up, I did not know much still. Somehow, I could read, write and add, but that was all. The advance I have now made is upon this store of education, which I have picked up under the pressure of necessity.
