Excerpt from Homicide and Suicide, in the City and County of Philadelphia, Pa: During a Decade, 1871 to 1881 InclusiveNaturally, it would be here out of place to enter into a detailed disquisition upon the legal aspects of homicide, though of the innumerable ways by which an excessive and too rapid increase of the human inhabitants of this planet is to some extent counteracted and held in check. N 0 one mode has more excited the horror, indignation, and anger of the surviving mem bers of the human family, than criminal homicide, to prevent entirely, or at least to diminish, the too frequent occurrence 01 which every measure the ingenuity and cruelty of the human mind could devise has at one time or another been brought into play, with what little success the proceedings in our criminal courts show us daily.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
