Excerpt from Decision, Vol. 1 of 3: A Tale
It were greatly to be wished, that the lighter, volumes of our libraries Were works that might be put into the hands of young people not only without fear, but with advantage: such would be the case, if truth, and.a life beyond the pre sent transitory scene, were kept in View; and surely, while human life presents to the eye of observation, circumstances full of interest, capable of improvement, and sufficiently wonderful, even for those who can only be charmed by things that are passing strange, fiction need not be resorted to: the tedium of an un employed hour, the languor of confine ment,_the dulness of a long rainy day in the country, may be amused, or relax ation from intenser studies, be found in.
