THE BACKGROUND 



There is every kind of quarter in New York. Here in its very nerve center is St. Paul's 

 Church, oldest religious edifice in the city, where Washington worshipped. A few blocks 

 away is Judea, with its innumerable six and seven story tenements. One square mile of 

 ground in this Bowery-bisected quarter has a population as great as the 113,000 square miles 

 of Arizona's domain.
