An especially nasty piece of negative political campaigning attacking Hallett's private character during an 1856 Congressional contest in upstate New York. Mitchell trots out details of some private commercial litigation against Hallett along with some of Hallett's other transactions. "I do not know of a single case where a person has been benefited by dealing with Mr. Hallett; whereas on the contrary it is my candid opinion that there is not a single case where Mr. Hallett has had any dealings to any extent with any person or persons but what they are the worst off; except in cases where he has co-operated with sharks for their mutual interest in the destruction of others."

90458º: 8 263 1 pp. Oorspr. bedrukt karton rug verdwenen. 'Reveries of a Bachelor or A Book of the Heart' verscheen in 1850 in boekvorm in New York nadat een gedeelte in 1849 al in een tijdschrift was gepubliceerd. Het boek was een enorm succes: tussen 1850 en 1907 is het bijna honderd keer herdrukt waarmee het - althans in commercieel opzicht - vergelijkbaar is met een andere Amerikaanse bestseller 'Uncle Tom's Cabin'. Donald Grant Mitchell 1822 - 1908 schreef het boek onder het pseudoniem Ik Marvel. De Nederlandse uitgever maakt op de titelpagina handig gebruik van de populariteit die Hasebroeks 'Waarheid en droomen' bezat. Ook daar gaat het om de wat melancholieke beschouwingen van een oudere vrijgezel Jonathan geheten. unknown
