I have seen a young man sell a good farm, turn merchant and die in an insane asylum.
I have seen a farmer travel about so much that there was nothing at home worth looking after.
I have seen a man spend more money in folly than would support his family in comfort and independence.
I have seen a young girl marry a young man of dissolute habits, and repent it as long as she lived.
I have seen a man depart from truth where candor and veracity would have served him to a much better purpose.
