"Most assuredly you should pay your debts." It was hardly an honest thing to go into debt for what you drank and could have done without. Possibly the drinking of the liquor has impaired your sense of right and justice as it has done in many another case. But you must be a man and pay up by all means and as quickly as possible. "But I have joined a Church since." Man alive, the Church won't pay your debts and you had better unjoin the Church than be dishonest. Live on one meal a day rather than by attending Church and cheating a brother man, even if he is a saloonkeeper. Signed Dec.
