The following text is adapted from James Weldon Johnson's 1912 novel. Johnson, a musician, is describing his first public performance in Jacksonville, Florida.
At this time I went in for music with an earnestness worthy of maturer years. I remember that when I was barely twelve years old I appeared on a program with a number of adults at an entertainment given for some charitable purpose, and carried off the honors. I did more, I brought upon myself thrdugh the local newspapers the handicapping title of "infant prodigy."
