Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Scenes of Parisian Life, Vol. 2 At six o´clock the next morning, two wagons, such as the people in their forceful language call "salad baskets," driven post-haste, left the Force in the direction of the Conciergerie and the Palais de Justice. There are few idlers who have not seen this rolling gaol; but, although books are generally written for Parisians alone, foreigners will doubtless be well content to read here the description of this formidable equipage of our criminal law. Who can tell? The Russian, Austrian or German police, the magistrates of countries to which salad baskets are unknown, may perhaps profit by this; and in many foreign countries the imitation of this method of transportation will certainly be of benefit to the prisoners. This ignoble wagon, a yellow box raised upon two wheels and lined with sheet iron, is divided into two compartments. In the forward portion there is a bench covered with leather, behind which hangs a curtain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
