Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Proceedings of the National Conference of Charities and Correction at the Twentieth Annual Session: Held in Chicago, Ill., June 8-11, 1893
An earnest effort was made to secure from each State a complete report, covering the historical development of its charitable and correctional work during the past two decades. This effort was largely successful; but in some cases every effort to secure a report failed, while in others the reports are incomplete. The reports from States, however, contain the most complete summary of the work of the several States that has yet been made. The attempt to make it complete has much delayed the publication of the volume.
