Excerpt from Glimpses Into the Abyss
The word vagrancy, from the Latin vagare, to wander, now implies a crime against civilised society (vagrancy Report, p. 3, footnote). Laws to restrain or abolish it form part of the code of European and other civilised States.
Nevertheless, the fact of vagrancy is one deep rooted in human nature. The tendency to it recurs both in the individual and in the race. In one stage of development the Child, unless re strained by watchful care, is essentially a vagrant, and a roaming fit seizes many of us at times. Before considering therefore historically, the legislation and remedies applied to the crime of vagrancy, it will be well to-dwell briefly on the underlying reasons for it.
