First sentence: The great object of Society, is the mutual advantage and assistance which men derive from one another; it is the duty, therefore, of every individual, as far as it lies in his power, to promote the happiness, and provide for the safety of his fellow creatures; and it is particularly incumbent upon every one to communicate whatever scheme observation or experience may have suggested, by which the numerous evils, to which men are liable, may be alleviated or removed.
