state of mind, and habit Of acting, and
although now and then = cruel thing
might be done in thoughtlessness, the
general commission of sets of cruelty in
dicated u temperament Of which cruelty
was the characteristic. and it was quite
certain, where there was cruelty, it
would not be confined to animals. Tie
temper and character which produced
these acts were just as dangerous to man
and woman MS to the animals whose
cases they had particularly in view, and
when they had succeeded in REFRESHING
acts of cruelty to animals. they should
keep under control and in in check that
temper and character which made homes
miserable and led TO acts of fatal vio-
lence.
