Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Convict, Vol. 1 of 3: A Tale To tell a very simple story, in the simplest possible manner, was the object of the author in writing the work which follows. Very few words, therefore, are necessary in way of preface; and none, perhaps, would have been written, had it not been pointed out to me, that men might suppose one of the characters in the work to be intended for the type of a profession, when, in reality, it is nothing more than the picture of an individual.
