The Age on Wealth and Social Bias in 19th Century Life
A reflective piece decries the elevation of wealth over humble merit, condemning public indifference to poor tradesmen, disdain for itinerant musicians, and the moral distortion caused by wealth worship, followed by remarks on temperance and health. It cites stories of water as drink and cites historic figures to illustrate temperate living.
