Notes

  • The piece claims to be the first of a series of extracts from the author who writes 'I have long intended to give the world the benefit of my experience in the shape of a novel ... [o]n consulting a friend ... he recommended ... that I should send forth a pilot balloon ... therefore, I, give ... to "my friends the public," a short extract from my note-book.' This piece is the only 'extract' published.
