TIE SORROWS AND THE DOOM OF TuE DRUNK
ARD
propose IN this discourse 10 tell you what
/ think arc tie sorrows sud the doom OF the
drunksrd, Sd that you To whom l speak may
not come 70 the torment.
Some one says, ''Yon had better let those
subjects alone" Why, my brethren, we
would De glad 70 let them alone If they would
let Us alone, but when / have IN M pocket
now four requests saying, 'Pray for my bus
band, pray for my son, pray for my brother
pray FOR nv friend, who is the captive Of
strong drink" l reply, we are ready 10 let
that question alone when it is willing 10 let
Us alone; but when it stands blocking Up the
way to heaven, and keepi.g muititudes away
! from Christ and heaven, l dare not be silent,
/ lest the Lord require their blood al my hands
think the sub jet has been kept hack very
much 10y the raerriInent people make over
| those slain by strong drink. / used TO be
very merry over these things, having a keen
\ sense OF tho lulicrous. There was something
very grotesque in the gait Of drunkard 1t
Is not 50 now; for saw in one OF the streets Ct
| Philadelphia q sight that changed the whole
subject 70 me. There was a young man being
/ led home. 10 vas very much Intoxicated
Ls was raving with intoEication Two young
| men were leading him along. The boys hooteI
/ IN the street men laughed, women sneered ,
| but I happened 10 be very near the door
where he went int was the door of his IA
| TIERS house. | saw him 60 Up stairs
heard him shouting, hootiny AMI blasphom-
Ing. lie had lost his hat, and tie nerriment
| increased with the mob until no came up 70
the door, and IS the door was opened his
mother came out When | heard her CRY.
that took all the comedy away from tae
scene. Since that time, when | sea man
walking through the street, reel.ng. the com
edy is all gone, and it Is a tragedy o. tears
, and groans and hcartbreas1s Never make
any fun around me about tho grotesqueness
OF Z drunkard. Alas for his home!
MS GOOD NAME IzLTs AWAY.
Tho hrst suffering II tho drnlkard IS in the
/ loss of his good name. God has D arranzo "a
it that no man ever loss his good name OK

Although he may DO bonbardod Tor twcuty
