  1. FROM.THAT.TIME_ JEFF.IN THURSDAY_ 59-1231
   

I was down on the bowery here some time ago, in New York, the great center of the drunken people. I think that it would be a good thing for any man to take his son to the bowery and let him see. I think if you were ever in France, take your daughter to Pigalle; let her see how degraded human life can get.
