Excerpt from The Gentleman Digger: Being Studies and Pictures of Life in JohannesburgIN the process Of civilisation there are many evils, some Of which are necessary - others totally unnecessary. The greatest Of these is the introduction Of intoxicants among the savage nations whom the white man has con quered in his march Of progress. It is an awful crime practised without compunction against the black humanity Of Africa.A crime crying out daily and hourly, in the wilderness and in the town, in the night and in the blessed sunshine, for vengeance on the unscrupulous men who, through the lust for gain, degrade and ruin the helpless native by the indiscriminate sale Of alcoholic drink.The incident, portrayed in this brief study, Of the cruel murder Of an Englishman by five drunken natives, and the details Of the trial, are facts that can be verified by the principal Johannesburg evening paper.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
