And I must say that my dear father, with all his noble generosity and overweening affection, sometimes appeared to me as my jailer. My brother's return from Europe and subsequent marriage opened the door a little for me. It was through his intervention that Mr. Longfellow first visited us, to become a valued and lasting friend.

He has thereby lost the whole of this story when he might have enjoyed a part of it. One other singular figure comes back to me across the wide waste of years, and seems to ask some mention at my hands.
