Excerpt from Treatise on the Poor Law of England: Being a Review of the Origin, and Various Alterations That Have Been Made in the Law of Settlements and Removals; And the Proposed Schemes Relating to National, Union, and Other Extended Areas for Raising Poor Rates, by Equalised Assessments, or Otherwise At a time when the Poor and the Poor Laws of this country occupy the attention of men of all classes, and of every political creed; and are so freely and warmly discussed, as well by the people as in the legislature, by the rate-payer as well as the rate-receiver; it may not be amiss if a dispassionate review be taken of the subject by one who has a practical acquaintance with the working of those laws, and who has a personal knowledge of the condition and habits of the Poor.
