Some of these great men presented me with photographs of their yachts and palaces, not anticipating the use to which I would put them.
Here are some portraits that will not harrow your feelings.

This is my mother, a woman of good family, every inch a lady.

Here is a Lancashire lass, the daughter of a common pitman.

She has exactly the same physical characteristics as my well-born mother--the same small head, delicate features, and so forth; they might be sisters.

This villainous-looking pair might be twin brothers, except that there is a trace of good humor about the one to the right.
