cicty people out on a sightseeing tour.
Y0u would have been astCnishcd to
discover how little they knew about
New York. Outside Of their calling
lists, the churches they attend and the
thentcrs they know almost nothing.
Their curiosity was unbounGed. They
wanted to know who lived In every
house we passed. They seemed to be
hungry to learn something which their
manner Of living had denied them.
They had a curiosity to find where
people lived who were not in their
social list. They actually did not know
the ame OF streets.
II never conducted such a curious
party. They interested me as much as
