Excerpt from Handbook of Mosses: With an Account of Their Structure, Classification, Geographical Distribution, and Habitats
This little Essay has been written in the leisure hours of one whose every-day life is spent amid the busy hum and constant strain of a work-a-day life in a large town, with the hope that he may call the attention of others similarly situated to himself to the beauties and wonders of some of God's fairest works. The study has been to him one of constant enjoyment, has led him into many a charming spot, has given him many a much-prized friendship, has informed his mind, gladdened his heart, and gratified. his eyes; and he would say to any one who is in search of objects of real interest: Study the Mosses. No objects are more readily found, for everywhere t.in nature you will find the Mosses.
