Excerpt from Selections From Standard Authors: For the Benefit of the Prison Inmates
In view of the limited amount of reading matter in the Prison Library, the idea suggested itself to my mind that a pamphlet containing brief and terse extracts from the writings of a few of the best standard authors, together with a few of my own suggestions, might confer a positive benefit upon the younger, and meet the approbation of the older inmates of the Prison, I compiled the one herewith presented. And with the hope that it will be received by you with all its imperfections, and in the same spirit that prompted its compilation, I remain your sincere friend; and also in the belief that "Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."
