The Fruits of Whisky Shops

By Rev. Dr. Arnot

PEOPLE need not tell me that I am excited on these questions. I know that I am. I should be ashamed before God and man if I were not. In my ministry, I meet the horrid fruits of these whisky shops. I see men and women perishing in these pitfalls. The number of the victims is so great that it overwhelms me. My brain is burning, my heart is breaking. The church is asleep and the world too, and they are hugging each other. I am weary with holding in. I must cry. I would rather be counted singular in the judgment of men, than to be unfaithful in the judgment of God.—Rev. Dr. Arnot.
