Madame Breshkovsky, while in New York,gave Doctor Abraham Cahan an account of her child-hood and youth. He wrote out her reminiscences, andpublished them in his paper, the Jewish Daily Forward,in instalments, running from October 23, 1904, toJanuary 18, 1905. This account, translated from the Yiddish, andsomewhat condensed, is here printed in English forthe first time. It brings the narrative down to herfirst arrest. Through an interpreter, she gave adescription of her early prison experiences and anoutline of her later life to Ernest Poole, who publishedit in the Outlook. To the Outlook I am indebted alsofor her letters written in prison to her son.
