Came across this on Neatorama. It's a book from the 1800's about all the terrible things that happen to children who don't obey their parents. What the heck is wrong with people?
Here's a link to the book itself and a sample of the text and illustrations:
We all got round Charles,who could not speak, and the blood ran from his mouth and nose. We called to him, Charles ! Charles ! why don't you speak ?' He seemed to be dead. We were all crying, when William ran to fetch a man, who was passing along the end of the meadow. As soon as the man saw Charles, he shook his head, and said, Poor child, if he is now alive, he cannot live long.'
