REV. J. MORRISON, D. D.,
PRINCIPAL OF THE EVANGELICAL UNION COLLEGE.


For my kind of work, I have found it absolutely necessary to abstain
altogether from the use of both alcohol and tobacco.

J. MORRISON.

MR. AUGUSTUS MONGREDIEN.


I am 75 years of age. I have smoked moderately all my life; and for
the last fifty years have never, except in rare and short instances of
illness, retired to bed without one tumbler of whiskey toddy. You will
therefore see that I am utterly incompetent to pronounce on the
respective effects, on the mind and body, of moderate indulgence, and
of total abstinence, for I have never tried the latter.

A. MONGREDIEN. March 10, 1882.
