Excerpt from John M. Daniel's Latch-Key: A Memoir of the Late Editor of the Richmond Examiner In December of last year, soon after the publication of the "Latch-Key" in the Native Virginian, I visited the city of Richmond, and, while there, was convinced that I had made, unwittingly, two decided errors: First, John M. Daniel did not write "The Parliament of Beasts." The real author is known, but his name is withheld, for sufficient reasons. Second, the walk to Petersburg was made, not for the purpose of lending, but of paying money which the Editor of the Examiner had collected for his friend, the then Artist, Peticolas. This I learned from the diary which Daniel kept at that time, and which Mr. T. H. Wynne has now in his possession. In respect of other matters of fact, I believe the Memoir is substantially correct. It is reprinted now in pamphlet form, for the benefit of many who were unable to obtain the back numbers of the Native Virginian which contained it, and in response to their repeated solicitations.
