cOncluufng thhL you we're tHefo.a3 one
of these people. oYou best know
WHETHER you were there or not as one
of them Let this be lesson to you.
The great error fofrimpnlsive men
like you is that at times they engage
in enterprises and do things, more es-
medially ii there are a number Of pea.
pie associated ID the undertaking,
which otherwise they would not do.
In future be more swayed by your
Judgment and less by the impulsiVe.
Reflect on all the circumstances of
your acts, You are a man, and should
think moro concerning that which
you undertake, They say you are a
good workman and can earn high
wages. Go now to your work get
those high wages, and if you can bet
ter yourself, do IT, The whole line of
occupation is open TO you, and all, as
| have said, impulsive men like you
engage in unlawful enterprises, and
where a number are committed to it,
you go recklessly, more IKE sayages
than civilized men. Go and be care
/ full. u(gHrtN efvtg
