I Dedicate these sketches, stories, studies, or what do you call them. We have galloped together over many leagues of Pampa, by day and night, and therefore I hope he will find the tales (or what do you call them) as near square by the lifts and braces, as is to be expected from a mere landsman.

Acknowledgments are due to:

The “Saturday Review,” the “Westminster Gazette,” and “Justice,” in which papers several of the Sketches included in this volume have appeared.
