ABSTRACT
Something in the natural temper and genius of the nation, generally speaking, they cannot save their money . . . I once paid six or seven men together on a Saturday night, the least 10s. and some 30s. for work, and have seen them go with it directly to the ale-house, lie there til Monday and spend every penny and run into debt to boot, and not give a farthing of it to their families though all of them had wives and children . . .
