EDDYTORIUL ON RUM

Rev. Saml Moore, paster of the
Bingville church, preeched a tur-
rible red hot sermon last Sunday
evg on "The Curse of Demon
Rum" which has been the talk of
the town ever sinst.
Nobuddy knowd that Rev.
Moore was a going to lash out
aginst rum until after the quire
had sang a anthem and he had be-
gin to dash out aginst it and for
this reason the sermon was a tur-
rible surprise to everybody spesh-
tally Bill Hepburn our we'll knowd
artistick blacksmith & weekly i'm
biber, as you mite say It will
also be a surprise to lern Jest why
Bill happend to be to church a tall.
We have inquired and the reason
is as folders:
Rev. Moore must of been con-
ternplatin preachin a sermon aginst
rum for quite spell back and it is
now plain to be saw that the SER
mum he preechd last Sunday evg
was preechd for Bill Hepburn's
speshial benefit and nobuddy elses.
About a wk ago Rev Moore hap
pend to meet Bill on the st very
cashual. They stopt to chat and talk
crops and the wether ct cetery I'M
til these topicks was exosted and
then the Rev. Moore askt Bill by
the way why diddent he ever come
to church? Bill he hinmed G.
hawed and said he wassent no
church member which was why,
and Rev. Moore told him that did
dent make no differents being as
lot of folks who wassent church
members come to church reglar
and that if Bill should come onct
in a while it wouldn't do him a
mite of harm.
Bill said, well, he haddent never
lookt at it in jest that light and
also he reckond it wouldn't do him
emmy harm & praps some Sunday
he mite take a noshion into his
head to go to church who knows
Then Rev. Moore says to Bill why
don't you promise me that you'll
come to church next Sunday eve
ming. Bill he shifted & twisted
and tride to Grail outen going
somehow or other but Rev Moore
stuck to him like leetch and final
ly Bill says, "Well, gorram it, if I
haft to 60 to church why I callate
I mite as we'll go next Sunday evg
as well as emmy other evg and git

Monday moring Bill said that
was the 1st time he had went to
church fer a coons age and SO
fur as he was concernd it was
agoin to be the last time for sew
eral more coons ages being as he
diddent like to have his falts
throwd up to him and that when
Rev. Moore begin to twit him
about the truth afore the whole
congregation he thort it was time
to depart.
Rev. Moore amt said anything
about preachin the sermon on rum
but most everybuddy else has If
we was to venchure opinyun we
would say that Parson Moore was
lest a leetle mite too hard on rum.
Of course we amt in faver of in
temperents, but we have allus belt
