This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF WILLIE SMITH. If I thocht the world would tak the least interest in the matter, I wad tell it the where an' the when o' my birth, in conformity wi' auld use an' wont in the case o' biographical sketches; but, takin it for granted that the world cares as little about me as I care about it?an', Gude kens, that's little aneuch, thanks to the industry o' my faither, that made me independent o't!?I shall merely say, wi' regard to the particulars above alluded to, that I was born in a certain thrivin, populous bit touny in the south, an' that I am, at this present writin, somewhat aulder than I was yesterday.
