Synopsis
Excerpt from Trenton's Foreign Colonies: A Description of the Homes, Habits, Customs, Languages, Attributes and Activities of the Non-English Speaking Residents of Trenton, as Published in Serial Form in the Trenton Sunday Advertiser
What the effect Of this enormous influx Of peoples in our midst Of thoroughly different ideals, habits, customs, ethics and thought will be on the civic future of Trenton, I cannot say. I believe no man in Trenton can answer that question. Our descendants will have before them a civic problem Of a magnitude surpassing that Of any in Trenton's previous history. But, I shall confine myself to the task Of describing things in sight, not in prospect.
