Description
Excerpt from Hints for the Practical Administration of the Poor Laws
Nor is this without reason. Brought up, for the most part, amid vice and wretchedness, without the salutary controul of parents, and their edu cation greatly neglected, it is not extraordinary they should frequently turn out idle and depraved, instead of becoming industrious and indes pendent. They often entail cost upon the parish during their whole lives, and sometimes leave a legacy of miserable, diseased, and vicious children, to be supported after their deaths. Should they have obtained a settlement elsewhere, the evil is not less to the community, and each parish must bear its share in this partition of evil.
