To J. Deming, Jr

To J. Deming, Jr.—We are not convinced by your attempted justification of Mr. Sutherland. He cannot make amends for such wrongs as he has been guilty of, any more than he can bring the dead to life. We should choose that such a man would not advocate the truth in any capacity whatever. You say he has not lectured unless requested by you. We advise you not to be partaker of other men's sins, by endorsing them; and would further suggest that your own past course should lead you to take a low place, and to distrust your own judgment on matters of right and wrong. J. H. W.
