Tom Paine : [unknown]
William McCarty, convicted for burglary, sentenced to seven years' transportation: 'As regards my religious character, before I came to this place I used to boast of my infidelity. I read nearly all Tom Paine's works and used to sport at religion; but ever since I heard you preach, I have thought very differently about myself and of God, and I hope to lead a very reverse course of life.'
