ABSTRACT
As father and son were constantly together, and every day at least one of these devil's sermons was delivered, the youth's immoral training progressed rapidly. Prom being repeatedly told that robbery was the great principle of life, and that it was no sin for the needy to take from the rich, Phil became firmly impressed with the truthfulness of the doctrine. I t was a kind of philosophy which a lazy youth was likely to take to kindly. The drudgery of a desk, the slavery of from
nine till eight, seemed very distressing, when placed alongside of one brilliant exploit per diem, and a full pocket.
