drives men from home, Plunders
proud cities, and perverts honest
minds to shameful practice and crime."

"Of all the foul growths current in the
world, the worst is money. Money
drives men from home, Plunders
proud cities, and perverts honest
minds to shameful practice and crime."
"Of all the foul growths current in the world, the worst is money. Money
drives men from home, Plunders

minds to shameful practice and crime."
