Excerpt from Hard Knocks: A Life Story of the Vanishing West N this country where blood and station count for naught, and where the race of life is open to all comers, it is for little more than a mere matter of record to say that I, Harry Young, the author, was born in Cape Vincent, New York, in 1849.
