 TIME.com: Life with Grandfather -- Jul 25, 1955 -- Page 1
Samuel Hopkins Adams is the author of some 50 books ranging from a scandalously sensational novel of the early '20s about President Harding's secret love life and his death to a judicious biography of his late friend Alexander Woollcott.
The sprightliest of these stories center around Grandfather Myron Adams, a patriarchally bearded forebear who was born in the late 18th century, helped build the Grand Erie Canal, and on occasion proved altogether willing to relate the bizarre hazards and furies of pre-Civil War life in the very language of those wonderful, distant days.
His racy and ebullient yarns of plugging canal leaks, spiriting runaway slaves along the underground railway, and keeping books for a traveling circus are crammed with theologasters, dawpluckers, makebates, hoodledashers and such archaic huncamunca.
