User-Contributed Transcription Is it possible that any of our fellowcitizens shall go to such a place.God grant that none of us maybe among the number. We have so often heard of hell thatour minds have become callousblunted to any description of it'sterrors. We look upon it withmuch the same indifferencethat we do upon a chainedsubdued drugged lion in a menagerie. But as true as thereis a God there is a hell, and these15000 of our fellow citizens whoare now in their sins will go thereunless arrested in their presentcourse. Who will warm them?who will arrest them? At whose hands will God require their blood?Much at yours and mine I fear mybrethren if we neglect our duty
