Excerpt from Violet: Or, the Times We Live In Violet was to have been sent into the world to meet her fate without an Introduction. But it occurred to a friend - the scene being laid in Philadelphia - that the reader might possibly be disposed to fancy the characters as real as the follies of The Times We Live In. The Author takes this Opportunity to assure the public that personalities are entirely at variance with the views intended to be inculcated in the work, and that the characters are altogether myths, pen and ink men and women, who die with The Times We Live In, as they were created to illus trate the follies or virtues of the same.
