My Grandfather Morrison married Miss Hodge, of Edinburgh, a lady in education, manners, and position, who died while the family was still young. At this time he was in good circumstances, a leather merchant conducting the tanning business in Dunfermline; but the peace after the Battle of Waterloo involved him in ruin, as it did thousands; so that while my Uncle Bailie, the eldest son, had been brought up in what might be termed luxury, for he had a pony to ride, the younger members of the family encountered other and harder days.

白话

卡内基的外祖父莫里森娶了爱丁堡的霍奇小姐,她受过良好教育、有教养、有地位,但在孩子还小时去世。当时外祖父家境不错,在丹弗姆林做皮革和制革生意。但滑铁卢战役后的和平时期让他破产,像成千上万人一样。结果大儿子(贝利舅舅)从小过得很奢侈,有马骑,而较小的孩子则经历了艰难日子。核心是说明家族命运因时代变故转折,也解释母亲一脉的教养与后来的困顿。
