whose destiny was full of mystery and at other times resembled the
plot of one of his own works than a biography of an ordinary person.

HOW DID THE PSEUDONYM APPEAR?
Everyone knows that O. Henry is just a pseudonym of a humorist.
Unfortunately, far fewer readers will be referred to as the present full
name of the author William Sydney porter. And hardly anyone will
say how he came up with a fictional name, because the biographers
are still looking for a definite answer to this question. The most
common legend is as follows. Early having lost his mother, and after
some time and drunken father, the future Creator was forced to earn a
living on their own.

At the age of 15, he was behind the pharmacy counter for the first
time. Much later, porter, working already in the prison pharmacy, took
the name of the eminent French colleagueO. Henri. Transkriberade
such in English, the writer acquired the pseudonym to publish his
work. However, the "pharmacy" version is not the only one in a
number of variants of the origin of the surname. There's evidence,
Henry is a random name, and O. is a random letter. Somewhat later
than the original alias in the journals appeared the stories, the
authorship of which allegedly belonged to one Oliver Henry.
Biographers still suggest the origin of the fictional nameup to the
abbreviated name of the prison where the writer was serving his
sentence.

CONCLUSION
After reading the biography of O. Henry, getting very sorry for
the poor writer, whose life was so bad. We can say that there was a
period in the writer's life when he didn't feel necessary, but the
ending is just horrific: frustrated, lonely death ... what if all is good,
if the meaning of life and not be found. Death had erased all. Were
only good memory of posterity, but that Henry, alas, will never
know.
