Fine day. Annoyed by being forced to decline several
applications for money. My experience leads me to know that the greater part of
those who apply for loans or for gifts of money either live more expensively
than their means warrant or they are unwilling to fix themselves down to one
pursuit. If we should undertake to criticise cases, there would be found very
few where hardship does not follow bad management and where relief can be
anything but temporary.
