Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Private History and Confession of Pamela Lee: Who Was Convicted at Pittsburgh, Pa;, December 19th, 1851, for the Wilful Murder of Her Husband, and Sentenced to Be Hanged on the 30th Day of January, A. D. 1852 As time rolls on, and with it brings before the world those momentous and awful circumstances which the reader will find to his astonishment in the following pages of this truly singular production, which contains a full, explicit, and satisfactory account of this mysterious and doomed woman, whose inhuman murders cry to heaven for vengeance. No language is adequate to describe, nor mind to conceive, the enormity of the offences perpetrated - perpetrated, too, in the very midst of Christian society, regardless alike of all law, both human and divine. As a friend to humanity and society, we feel bound by an impulse of duty, to direct the attention of the solicitous reader to the perusal of at least the leading features of a career that cannot fail to attract the attention of the most indifferent observer of transitory events. If, contrary to expectation, the following pages, containing the Life of Pamela Lee, should fail to satisfy any, we assure such that our best efforts, though humble, have been directed by no other motive than a sincere regard for the propagation of strict morality, truth, virtue, and integrity. Having strained every nerve, consulted every available record, we followed from the cradle of unconscious innocence, step by step, through the joyous days of girlhood, a period not the least important in after life. Again, we behold her arrayed like the bird in spring, decorated in flowing robes, the meridian of woman´s glory, basking in the full enjoyment of a husband´s love, surrounded by her little children, trying to lisp the sacred name of Mother, while the warbling birds are pealing forth their gentle notes as they skip from limb to limb through the sunny grove around the smiling cottage home. Again the curtain rises, but the scene becomes suddenly changed; solitude and mourning occupy the place of joy.
