Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Excerpt from Letters to the Secretary of State on the Subject of Pauperism It is a broad and comprehensive subject, sir! It, is not to be mastered in a moment, or disposed of in a day. If you would fathom its breadth and depth, you must wade through masses of facts and statistics which would cause a mere fancy statesman to stand aghast. You must look with your own eyes on the masses of the poor in our larger cities - you must behold the filth, the disease, the nakedness, the squalor, the mental and moral cor ruption aggregated there. You must learn for yourself, the size of the army of children who are growing up amongst us with the seeds of disease in their bodies, and the still fouler leprosy of guilt festering deeply in their souls. I know these sights are appalling; that it is no holiday task to survey them, yet I hope you will not shrink from the undertaking, because it will enable you to use your official station far more effectually for the amelioration of these evils than if the source of your knowledge was only heresay. You will recollect the saying of the man to the woman of Sama ria: Now we believe, not because of thy saying, for we have heard him ourselves. These Samaritans were like other human beings, and knowledge acquired through the medium of their own senses was far more operative on their actions than that which they obtained through the testimony of others.
