I am Darrell Standing.

They are going to take me out and hang me pretty soon.

In the meantime I say my say, and write in these pages of the other times and places.
After my sentence, I came to spend the rest of my "natural life" in the prison of San Quentin.

I proved incorrigible.

An incorrigible is a terrible human being--at least such is the connotation of "incorrigible" in prison psychology.
