No one would think of bringing
home a diseased sheep and allow it
to run with his beautiful flock. But
how often are the farmers compelled
from necessity to hire man with a
diseased and corrupt mind and soul
reeking with foulness, and set him to
work with his pure and noble boys,
to learn them the whole catalogue of
vile language and debased actions.
'How shall we escape the body of
this moral death p Is it not better
that our farm run to weeds or our
crops rot in the fields?
