Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Abduction of Juan Francisco Rey: A Narrative of Events From His Own Lips The narrative, contained in these pages, of the Abduction of Juan Francisco Garcia, or - the name by which he is now universally known in the United States - Juan Francisco Rev, which lie assumed on his first arrival in this country, is drawn tip from notes of conversations had with him on the subject, six successive days, each interview being of three or four hours´ duration. The narrative form has been adopted, because of its facility in composition, and for the reason that it is the most agreeable to the reader, and easiest understood. Rey, almost entirely unacquainted with the proceedings in his ease, further than the isolated fact of a prosecution having been instituted, and ignorant of the great interest attaching to every incident connected with his abduction, could not be expected to make a continuous statement himself, embracing all the facts of public concernment. It was therefore a task of no little difficulty - and hence the length of time occupied - to obtain from him a history in detail, without resort to what is technically known at the Bar as "leading questions," which, it is obvious, it would have been improper to resort to under the circumstances. The facts delivered by him disjointedly have been placed consecutively, and the first person singular adopted to avoid involution. The matter is thus laid before the Public us it came from Rey´s own lips, except that condensation - brought into requisition. From the length of time allowed Rey for the recital, and the latitude he had, many important matters pertinent to the great national question involved in the abduction, were elicited, which would scarcely be obtained in a trial of the parties accused, under a strict application of the rules of evidence.
