Is It Wise?

THERE came to us a few days ago an appeal “To My Fallen Sister,” written and published by an earnest-hearted man who wants to help all souls. His first publications, gotten out a few years ago, were simply frights etymologically, grammatically, rhetorically; but he kept on. His efforts have improved as the years have gone by, and his zeal has not abated. He asks of the paper referred to above, “Is it wise?”

We do not know. It treats on a delicate subject. We would not have written it in the way he has; we might not have written it as well; perhaps we would not have written it at all. We will not criticize this. If it was written in humility of heart, if the writer was moved upon by God's Spirit to help this class (and we so believe), it is wise. God may use it more effectually than He can much more finished productions. May its words of caution, advice, and appeal take hold of the hearts for which it was penned. Copies may be had by addressing Tom C. Hege, Newbern, North Carolina. Send postage.
