Physicians Of Rochester
Working seven days without rest harms health and leads to premature aging and death.
Dr. F. Backus and seven other respectable physicians of Rochester, New-York, have given the following testimony: "Having most of us lived on the Erie Canal since its completion, we have uniformly witnessed the same deteriorating effects of seven days' working upon the physical constitution, both of man and beast, as have been so ably depicted by Dr. Farre." They are more sickly than others, bring upon themselves, in great numbers, a premature old age, and sink to an untimely grave.
