Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Specimen Spinster
That's how I began to be called queer, even in my early days.
Like as not I looked queer. If a tin-type is good evidence, I most surely did, I was given the name of Mary without my knowledge or consent, but at home I was never nick-named Polly. I had other names in plenty, but that I never heard. I reckon it had been tried on me before I could answer to it, and met with a just reward.
