Excerpt from Rachel Gray: A Tale Founded on Fact
I do not mean to aver that every word is a positive and literal truth, that every incident occurred exactly as I have related it, and in no other fashion, but this I mean to say: that I have invented nothing in the character of Rachel Gray, and that the sorrows of Richard Jones are not imaginary sorr ows.
My purpose in giving this story to the world is twofold. I have found that my first, and in many respects, most imperfect work Madeleine, is nevertheless that which has won the greatest share of inter est and sympathy; a result which I may, I think, safely attribute to its truth, and which has induced me to believe that on similar grounds, a similar distinction might be awarded to a heroine very different in deed from Madeleine, but whose silent virtues have perhaps as strong a claim to admiration and respect.
