George Gilman Smith Quotes

Society Was In A Fearful State. When Human Life Was Held At So Cheap A Rate And When Brutal Courage Was At Such A Premium; When Men Had No Compunction About Getting Drunk, If Rum Could Be Had; When It Was No Robbery To Take All A Tory Had, And No Murder To Hang Him; When Children Grew To Manhood Who Had Never Spent A Month In The Schoolroom, And Who Had Never Heard A Sermon, It Was Not To Be Expected That The Morals Of The People Would Be High, Or Their Manners Refined, Or Their Intelligence Considerable.
