A Model Confession

Seventy years ago, in Vermont
town, a Young lawyer-a member
of large church-got drunk.
The brethren said he must confess.
He Gemurred. lie knew the mem
bers to be a good people, bat that
they had their little faults, such as
driving sharp bargains, screwing
the laborer down to low wages,
loaning money at illegal rates,
misrepreseuting articles they had
for sale, etc. But they were a good
people and pSessed the lawyer to
come before the "cAurch meeting
to own up to his sin OF taking a
glass too much, for they were a
temperance people before temper
ance societies existed. The sinner
finally went tn the feseiOn;
found large gathering of lrett reu
and sisters, whose bow& heads
rose aud whose eyes gAstened
with heavenly delight as tile la*
yer began his confession. =.
