Francis Colburn Adams (1850-1891) was an American miscellaneous writer, formerly living in Charleston, South Carolina, who wrote under various pseudonyms.'Not more than a mile from the brisk little town of Nyack, on the Hudson river, and near where the road makes a sharp turn and winds up into the mountain, there lived, in the year 1803, an honest old farmer of the name of Hanz Toodleburg. Hanz was held in high esteem by his neighbors, many of whom persisted in pronouncing his name Toodlebug, and also electing him hog-reef every year, an honor he would invariably decline.'
