Excerpt from Autobiography of Mark Rutherford The present edition is a reprint of the first, with corrections of several mistakes which had been overlooked. It also contains in addition a short story "A Mysterious Portrait," which, although it was written by my friend when he was young, seemed to me worth preserving. There is one observation which I may perhaps be permitted to make on re-reading after some years this autobiography. Rutherford, at any rate in his earlier life, was an example of the danger and the folly of cultivating thoughts and reading books to which he was not equal, and which tend to make a man lonely. It is all very well that remarkable persons should occupy themselves with exalted subjects, which are out of the ordinary road which ordinary humanity treads; but we who are not remarkable make a very great mistake if we have anything to do with them.
