 TOM SWIGGS' SEVENTH INTRODUCTION ON BOARD OF THE BRIG STANDFAST

 
 
IT is in the spring of 1847 this history commences.
 
"Steady a bit! Here I am, boys, turned up again-a subject of this moral reform school, of moral old Charleston. If my good old mother thinks it'll reform a cast-off remnant of human patchwork2 like me, I've nothing to say in protest. Yes, here I am, comrades (poor Tom Swiggs, as you used to call me), with rum my victor, and modern vengeance3 hastening my destruction." This is the exclamation4 of poor Tom Swiggs (as his jail companions are pleased to call him), who, in charge of two officers of the law, neither of whom are inclined to regard him with sympathy, is being dragged back again to the Charleston jail. The loathsome6 wreck7 of a once respectable man, he staggers into the corridor, utters a wild shriek8 as the iron gate closes upon him, and falls headlong upon the floor of the vestibule, muttering, incoherently, "there is no hope for one like me." And the old walls re-echo his lamentation9.
 
"His mother, otherwise a kind sort of woman, sends him here. She believes it will work his reform. I pity her error-for it is an error to believe reform can come of punishment, or that virtue10 may be nurtured11 among vice12." Thus responds the brusque but kind-hearted old jailer, who view swith an air of compassion
