CATHERINE: a Story BY Ikey Solomons, Esa, Junior ADVERTISEMENT.
The story of " Catherine," which appeared in Fraur's Magazine in 1839-40, was written by Mr. Thackeray, uhder the name of Ikey Solomons, Jun. , to counteract th...e injurious influence of some popular fictions of that day, which made heroes of highwaymen and burglars, and created a false sympathy for the vicious and criminal With this purpose, the author chose for the subject of his story a woman named Catherine Hayes, who was burned at Tyburn, in 1726, for the deliberate murder of her husband, under very revolting circumstances. Mr. Thackeray's aim obviously was to describe the career of this wretched woman and her associates with such fidelity to truth as to exhibit the danger and folly of investing such persons with heroic and romantic qualities.
