Light and Crime
John 3:20-21
For every one that does evil hates the light, neither comes to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.…


In 1807 Pall Mall was lighted with gas. The original Gas Company was first derided and then treated in Parliament as rapacious monopolists, intent upon the ruin of established industry. The adventurers in gaslight did more for the prevention of crime than the government had done since the days of Alfred.

(Knight's "England. ")
