  1. Bless the souls of the poor who once lived in the slums of NYC—most were decent people who, wanting to provide for their families, took their courage in hand—and their life savings—and immigrated across the ocean to a totally alien world…. Driven by The Great Irish Potato Famine, the nonstop German wars & uprisings for unity, and by a host of other upheavals, most didn’t speak the language, and took any job(s) they could find—while living in the only places they could afford (and as The Gilded Age swanned along, they died by the thousands — from all of the diseases associated with poverty, squalor & hopelessness: Cholera, Yellow Fever & Tuberculosis)…..Have mercy upon them.
