whose names were inscribed on the barrels :?

trouble has lust commenced. II YOU have an
acquaintance in the liquor business you had better
advise him to get out of it. We are going to

and next summer Settle the question and you
will bring peace and Joy to homes now as desolate
as the grave Settle 1t and the youth that 20

will realize 1t in a magnificent manhood. You
are bound by every obligation to man and God to
be alert in this matter Stand by the right and
we will win again the golden age when truth and
righteousness shall prevail. We will win the
favor Of God, which is life, and his blessing
which is more than life Not for the sake Of
} strife, not because of animosties provoked, but
for the love Of God and his Son, let us fight thei
battle until intemperance is swept from the LAND
! with the bosom of destruction"
