Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poor Law Legal provision for the relief of the destitute is not, like other national institutions, - for instance, Parliament, courts of justice, or a standing army, - a plain and necessary part of civilised social organisation, requiring no explanation and needing no defence. On the contrary, such provision would seem at first sight artificial and even unnatural, for it establishes a state of things in which persons are not obliged, unless they choose, to provide themselves with the means of subsistence; while those who work for their own living are compelled, whether they like it or not, to maintain those who will not or cannot support themselves. Hence it is always found necessary, in treating of this subject, to begin by showing why there ought to be and in point of fact must be a Poor Law before we can discuss profitably what Poor Laws ought to be, or describe what they have been.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poor Law: A Proposal for Its Abolition When society makes a law by which every one of its members is protected against the consequences of his idle fuess or want of thrift, to whatever extent these may be pushed, a course is adopted exactly opposite to that which is pursued by Nature. Society in England says to the lazy and unthrifty, If you do not care to work, you shall be supported by the State you shall not, indeed, be provided with luxuries, but you shall have sufficient food and shelter; you need not fear that any serious task of work will be demanded of you. If, during your youth and manhood, you choose to labour, Well and good, but it is not necessary for you to lay up a provision for sickness or old age; you can spend all your spare cash on beer, gin, and luxuries, because you will be provided for at the public charge, in decency and tolerable comfort, when you are no longer able to work Nature, on the other hand, says to man, in unmistakable Fan guage, If you do not work, you shall die like a dog in a ditch. Is the method of Society, or that of Nature, more merciful? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the English Poor Law, Vol. 1 of 2: In Connexion With the Legislation and Other Circumstances Affecting the Condition of the People Sixty-five years ago the imperative necessity of Poor Law reform in this country forced itself upon the attention of statesmen. A faulty system had been allowed to work without safeguard or restriction, and it had fully and fairly worked itself out. The warning was upon the wall in very large letters; the national character was at stake; and the permanent welfare of England was probably in no less danger from bad Poor Laws than it had been from Napoleon Buonaparte. Fortunately the subject had not been made a party question. Fortunately, too, the very magnitude of the evil tended to disclose the causes of it, so that there coexisted several conditions favourable to prompt and successful treatment, - a pressing danger, an easy diagnosis, and a legislature ready to be swayed by Reason, if Reason could find a mouthpiece. Such was the state of things when the Whigs took the business in hand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Irish Poor Law: In Connexion With the Condition of the People A history of the Irish Poor Law, explaining its origin and the principles on which it was founded, together with an account of its progress and the effects of its ap plication would, it might reasonably be supposed, afford information that must be generally useful - that it would be useful to the administrators of the law, can hardly admit of doubt. Such a history would place before them in a complete and regular series, all that it would be necessary for them to know, and all that ought to be borne in mind, in order that the examples of the past may prepare them for promptly dealing with the present, or for anticipating the future. The following work has been framed chiefly with this view and I can only say that I have earnestly endeavoured to make it sufficient for the purpose, without any other wish or object than that it should prove useful in a cause to which during several years my best ener gies were devoted, and to the furtherance of which I could no longer contribute in any other way.

Download or read book Practice of the Scottish Poor Law Classic Reprint written by George A. Mackay and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practice of the Scottish Poor Law As a result of many conversations with Inspectors of Poor, Parish Councillors, and Parish officials generally, I have come to think that there is a real need for a little manual of Poor Law practice. Since the publication of Mr. Guthrie Smith's classic book some forty years ago, nothing of this kind has been attempted. It is true that Mr. Graham, in a most valuable work on Poor Law, has collected all the Acts and decisions, and linked them together with lucid notes. But Mr. Graham necessarily dwells on the strictly legal side of his subject. To one engaged in active Poor Law work, the practice appeals more strongly than the law, and accordingly the present book is more a manual of practice than any of its predecessors. In dealing with the law of Settlement and Recourse, I have endeavoured, as far as possible, to express the law in the form of general propositions, and have avoided argument upon debatable points. I have not set for myself any high aim, as I know that many Inspectors of Poor, from long experience, and from native shrewdness, have acquired such a mastery of the law of Settlement that one must not expose the weak places in his armour to the shafts of their criticism. But I am hopeful that Assistant Inspectors, Inspectors of the smaller parishes who may not have all the authorities at command, and especially new Inspectors, may find my notes useful.

Download or read book A Treatise on the Poor Laws of Pennsylvania Classic Reprint written by Calvin G. Beitel and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Poor Laws of Pennsylvania For nearly a quarter of a century the author has held the position of counsel for the Board of Poor Directors of his county. During this time he has often felt the need of a work on the poor laws in a more compact form than the various digests of the laws and decisions of the courts, covering nearly two hundred years of legislation. Some years ago he commenced to arrange the decisions under the acts which had required judicial construction, and finally led to the present work. As nearly all legislation in reference to the poor prior to the act of June 13, 1836, has been repealed, or rather embodied in the latter act, the plan adopted was to take that act section by section and under each give the decisions of the courts construing them, and in doing so the author has not confined himself to the courts of last resort, but has digested the cases of all the lower courts that he thought of any value. There are instances where certain sections of the act of 1836 have been supplemented or modified to some extent by later legislation, and wherever it was possible these supplemental acts were placed immediately under the section meant to be modified. It has been the object to compile a work which would, if possible, be complete in itself and relieve the reader or student of the necessity of resorting to the reports.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Poor-Law and the New Socialism: Or Pauperism and Taxation I have been requested to state in a few words why it has been thought important that the Cobden Club should bring into general notice the gist and substance of the Report of the Poor Law Commissioners of 1832, upon which our present Poor Law is founded. Few now alive remember the frightful state of the agricultural districts of England which that report dis closed; and it is evident, from various proposals now made for the benefit of the poor, that many of its lessons have been forgotten even by our statesmen.
