In 1850 Uncle Cyrus Curtiss writes: - "If you wish to find the noblest and meanest; the most generous and the most penurious; the most sincere and the most hypocritical specimens of humanity come to Illinois and you cannot fail. but much to my satisfaction I find among them a "right smart sprinkle" of that Charity, which believeth all things, and which has been sorely tested by speculators of all descriptions".
