Excerpt from The Life, Adventures and Opinions of David Theo; Hines, of South Carolina: Master of Arts, and Sometimes, Doctor of Medicine; In a Series of Letters to His Friends The freedom with which the writer speaks of prominent individuals, Whose actions and motives he so unblush ingly colors to his own purposes, partakes in a wonderful degree of the bold character of his exploits. The ingenious sophistry of his own peculiar notions respecting law and justice, and the rights ofthe citizen, will make no converts, even among the most simple and unsuspecting. No law of justice ever yet found admirers among those who strive to live by their wits rather than by honorable exertions.
