The true history of the Kentish Lawyer, by Anonymous 62515 [Subtitle: with an account of the extraordinary marriage of his son] [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/6/2/5/1/62515 ] [Files: 62515-0.txt; 62515-h.htm] For those wishing to know: another tract from the Religious Tract Society, possibly early 1800's, where a "godless" lawyer tries to corrupt his son who is in "danger of becoming a puritan". I think it must be based on real events, but it's so poorly told it's sounds more like a very bad novel plot. All the best, David, Windy England with blue skies

Socialism Exposed, by Rev. Joseph Mather 62506 [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/6/2/5/0/62506 ] [Files: 62506-0.txt; 62506-h.htm] For those wishing to know: published by the Religious Tract Society, probably in the 1830's, this is one of many tracts which attacked the Socialist Robert Owen, mainly because he was an atheist and also thought the establishment had used religion to enforce the poverty of the then existing social order. Owen had become famous for his good treatment of workers etc., many of the lower-classes were flocking to hear him, and the religious saw this as a distinct threat to them, their power, and place in society. All the best, David Sunny and very windy England
