APPEAL TO MAGISTRATES,
((part of this article is cut off, will start with what it begins with))
pARAGRAGH 2, 121; PAGE 375 of Miliken and Vertrees code places at the
disposal of your Honorable County Court, the illigitimate children of
your county. To allow these little unfortunates to be raised as the law
says they shall not be raised is to grow your own criminal population.
To herd them in your county asylums with other children is hardly the
thing to do to in the absence of moral training and mother care. Give
us these children if possible, give them to us before you place them in
the poor house. The law does not contemplate their incarceration there
before you can help them. Do not bind them out. This is worse than
slavery. Do not compel them to grow up where all know of their
misfortunes, this is to handicap them for life. But give them to us we
are a chartered institution and good homes are opened to us every day.
And in a few years we will give these children back to your state
rescued and redeemed ready to take their places in ranks of useful
citizensh! ip. it will cost your county less money by our plan to make
citizens out of these children than it now costs it to fasten upon them
a future of ignorance pauperism or crime. If your county court will
appropriate $20.00 a head to cover the expense we obligate ourselves to
place in good home every homeless child in your county. Will you take
some interest in this work? J M Jordan, Supt Children't Home Society
Middle Tennessee Winchester, Tennessee.
