Bag om The Burglar's Fate and the Detectives by Allan Pinkerton, Fiction, Action & Adventure, Mystery & Detective

On a hot, sultry weekday of summer, in the bank of the small agricultural town of Geneva, business has been bustling all afternoon. Just after the doors have been closed for the day, a knock is heard -- and inwards burst two men, who seize the clerks and bind them -- and then lock them into the safe! "If in the punishment of Eugene Pearson, Dr. Johnson, Newton Edwards and Thomas Duncan, the young men of to-day who are tempted by folly or extravagance learn that their condemnation was but the natural and inevitable result of thoughtless crime -- and if their experience shall be the means of deterring one young man from the commission of a deed, which the repentance of years will not obliterate, I shall feel that I have not labored in vain." -- Allan Pinkerton.
