Excerpt from Out of the Depths: A Personal Narrative of My Fall Under the Power of Strong Drink and My Complete Reformation

Christian men and women I breathe an earnest prayer on these pages and send them into every poor, vile place in the land with the news that there is power In Jesus Christ to raise up the worst drunkard and make a man of him. I know it, for I have traveled over the whole ground, and having waited for four years and upwards before sending out this public statement, I am satisfied that the change wrought in me is permanent.

In a simple narrative form I present pages from my heart-experiences which will, I trust, prove a warning to the young, an inducement to the middle aged moder ate drinker to stop and think, but above all to convey to the befogged mind of the drunkard the blessed idea that there is hope for him yet.

To show how a young man first becomes entangled in the meshes of this destroyer I have deemed it necessary to carry my life-story from an early period until the hour when I became a free man. Let the reader re member one thing: this is no isolated case. Hundreds have been saved by the same means, and, thank God, the same personal experience Is for all who will accept of it.
