[The Iron Puddler by James J. Davis]@TWC D-Link bookThe Iron Puddler CHAPTER XXII 4/9
The mob took all the fine houses and killed the rich people.
Caesar took the bodies and, laying them in cement like bricks, he built an enormous column of corpses in Union Square towering higher than any building in New York.
He established his headquarters in a Fifth Avenue palace and was directing the slaughter of all men who owned property, when some of his followers got jealous of his fine position and killed him and burned the house.
By that time everything in America was destroyed, and the hero of the book, having invented an air-ship, flew away to South Africa to escape the general demolition.
This book was being circulated by communists as a true picture of what the country was coming to. These pamphlets came into my hands at a time when work was getting scarcer every day and a million men like myself were moving about the country looking for jobs.
