"Comfort in
Tribulation"
"Intemperance, profanity, Sabbath-
breaking, opposition to parental restraint, covetousness, ambition,
pride, arrogance, self-confidence,
neglect of the Bible, free-thinking, sectional bitterness and partisan
strife, corruption at the very fountain-head of State and National administration, accompanied, in instances not a few, with perjury,
falsehood, treachery; and slavery -
not as a relation between master and servant, regulated by the Bible, but as a system of human bondage,
perverted to individual, sectional, and national aggrandisement. I need not
enlarge the catalogue.""
