Excerpt from A Popular Essay on Subjects of Penal Law: And on Uninterrupted Solitary Confinement at Labor, as Contradistinguished to Solitary Confinement at Night and Joint Labor by Day, in a Letter to John Bacon, Esquire I shall have to touch on the charges, implied in these lines, which seem written with so much emphasis; and therefore dismiss for the present this repetition of charges, long ago proved to be false, leaving it in the meantime to their writer, to show how it is doing violence to the nature of man when he is shut up on sabbath; and to the good Ohio legislators, how they will take the courteous compliment paid them by the allusion to the possibility that they themselves or their wives and children may one of these days be locked up as criminals. I turn at once to the subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
