Bank-Note Convict Recalls a Boston Love and Escape
An elderly Mississippi planter recounts a decades old tale of a Boston attorney, a counterfeiting charge, a prison sentence, and a redemption sparked by Mary Marshall. The narrator, once jailed for uttering a questionable bank note, learns the conviction was wrongful, and he finds lasting happiness with Annette after a stormy, fate‑driven voyage to New Orleans and beyond.
