INTRODUCTION
This chapter represents the last visit to the cell told by the narrator, although it is not the last visit he makes to Jefferson. The day of the execution is coming nearer and nearer as it is due to take place in a fortnight.

He tells Jefferson that he wants Jefferson to believe in something so that someday Grant can look to Jefferson as an example and start
