Highwayman tale shifts voice from editor to outlaw
An editor recounts a highwayman encounter with a newspaper man, including a parole to publish a piece in a local paper. The tale follows the editor meeting the robber, the robber’s odd generosity, and the journalist’s journey to Fort South where he interviews a condemned man who turns out to be the Echo editor. The exchange yields a half column warning about style and truth in journalism.
