On the wall above an open door in Central City, Colorado, is the statement "We seek the Widows gushing tears, We seek to calm the trembling Orphan's fears, We seek to raise Humanity above The ills of life by ministries of Love; And when the talk is told, and man resigns his trust We seek in Friendship's name, to monument his dust." A tablet with the Ten Commandments is painted above the statement. The wall below is wallpapered.
