It may be well here to remark, though
not as a part of either of the accounts
in hand, that the wealth of some, is a
reward, not only of their honesty and
persevering industry, but also of their
economy and endeavors to save their
earnings as much as may be; only
spending their money for useful and
necessary things. Then when they see
a friend or brother in need, and it seems
right to help him, they have the means
to contribute to his relief.
