text_original: Infanticide was sadly common as hope and industry declined, and good land was passing into desert from want of hands to till the soil. There was no fear then that the increase of popula  tion should outrun the means of living ; but there was danger that the selfish or improvident should decline the cares of fatherhood, hurry out of life again statesman  those whom they had called into the world, or ship shown leave them to struggle at haphazard through of the cn. the tender years of childhood.
