IN this book a number of dialects are used, to wit: the
Missouri negro dialect; the extremest form of the
backwoods Southwestern dialect; the ordinary ‘Pike
County’ dialect; and four modified varieties of this last.
The shadings have not been done in a hap- hazard fashion,
or by guesswork; but painstakingly, and with the
trustworthy guidance and support of personal familiarity
with these several forms of speech.
I make this explanation for the reason that without it
many readers would suppose that all these characters were
trying to talk alike and not succeeding.
