You camo to our office and asked us to lolp you get started In tho amusement lino. You were n young man and lookod like you only needed a chance la order to make good. We trusted you. You got all you could from us and then loft with out paying us what you owed. Wo paid tho men who sold us tho miner. Wo paid tho printers. Wo spent our! own time In talking over the jobs and seeing tlmt they were woll and fairly done. You. took the fruits of all of our labor and skinned out. You spent all you could get hold of. Wo needed our pay for this work. Tho carpenters who remodoled tho hall needed their money. Tho landlady whero you stayed needed her monoy. nut you have done worse than beat us out of money.

You will hasten tho day when brotherhood will !3 strangled nnd mankind will revert to tho barbaric. Credit and faith in ono another are tho bulwarks of our pres ent civilization and when these an gone all Is gone. But you have not done that. Your act Is despised by all upstanding men and women and while the thoughtless will smllo and comment on your act as ono of clever ness, tho thinking will see In it tho outcropping of your baser nature. We have scratched your name from our books. Wo will coasp to romember your crime and only hope that you will catch yourself before It is too late for you to make a man of your self. .
