"Two of the pieces contained in the following pages - the Mammouth Cave and The Tale of a Snag - appeared some time since in the American Monthly Magazine. They are repeated here ... because they properly belong to, and were always intended to form a part of, the budget of 'Peter Pilgrim'."--Notice.
