Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Gilmers in America
The editor has been asked to tell the bad as well as the good on the other hand, he has been counseled against too great frankness for fear that disagreeable things might be recalled, and the innocent made to suffer. It is pleasant to be able to say that the editor can obey the first injunction without any indelicate frankness, and the consequences thereof. The Gilmers have been a clean people, and the bad have been so inconspicuous that their evil deeds are long forgot, or so hidden by the mantle of charity that they cannot now be discovered.
