Cousins Marrying

Tn answer to the person who defends cousins marrying, l have this to say to her; The states that forbid the marriage of cousins are wise. II is the offspring of such marriages that are most often physically, mentally and morally unfit l am only 30 years old and in my time have seen four bad cases of it. Two children of one marriage are hideous looking unatics. The parents are wealthy and kept the boy in an iron barred room until he died. The girl is horrible to look at and takes great delight in stealing potatoes. The parents lay it to the mar rying of cousins.
 We have bred blooded chickens, hunt ing dogs horses and cows and know the dangers of 'inbreeding.' Before marriage young people are apt to think only of themselves. Afterward when children come and things are not right, regrets are useless. That child may hate them some day. It does not always happen, but it happens far too often to be disregarded.
