4 LAND AND LABOR TESTIMONIALS. 



From the Rev. Dr. It. J1EBER NEWTON, Rector of All Saint*' 

 Church, New York City. 



MR. W. GODWIN MOODY, 



My Dear Sir : 



I HAVE looked over the man- 

 uscript sent me with exceeding interest. The subject to which you 

 have given such careful study for several years, as I have personally 

 known, is one of supreme importance to the future of our country 

 that is to say, of the world. I know of no one who has followed the 

 trail of our present tendency in agriculture so patiently. The facts 

 you have gathered will prove to most men, even to most students 

 of social science, a revelation full of warning. They are of such a 

 nature as to engage attention at once on presentation and will, I 

 have no doubt, provoke a wide discussion. They ought to be laid 

 before the people, by whom they will be read, I am sure, with quick 

 appetite. 



Yours cordially, 



R. HEBER NEWTON. 

 All Souls' Church, New York, Dec. 14, 1882. 



From ROBERT D. LATTON, Grand Secretary of the Noble Or- 

 der of the Kni'j/its of Labor of North America. 



PITTSBURGH, APRIL 16th, 1883. 

 WILLIAM GODWIN MOODY, 



Dear Sir : 



Amid the hurly burly of my office 



duties I have found time to read the advanced sheets of your remark- 

 able book. 



I knew, in a general way, of the monstrous Devil Fish Land 

 Monopolies but never really comprehended its magnitude until I 

 began the reading of your exposition. 



I congratulate you upon the happy, felicitous style in which you 

 have presented this cancer in our nation. It reads as pleasant as a 

 romance, whilst it unerringly points out our terrible condition. I 

 trust your valuable work will find a place in the home of every son 

 of Adam who toils for his bread, that he may know the answer to 

 that universal prayer now welling up in their hearts, What must we 

 do to be saved ? 



Yours for humanity, 



ROB'T D. LAYTON, G. S.
