A Night's Work
More than one man has been handed for doing what he did not mean to do.
When anyone under the influence of liquor commits a crime it is no longer an extenuation or defense
to say that he was not responsible. This is so because it is a matter of human experience that if one sets
a match to gunpowder it will explode and if one pours liquor down his throat he is filing his brain
with the seeds of malice, hate and murder. Many a man has scoffed at such a statement at twelve
o'clock at night, but has seen awful proof of its truth, when, awakening at nine in the morning he recovers
from a fatal debauch and sees the work of his own drunken and murderous hand.
At the last it biteth like a serpent and stingeth like an adder.
Prov. 23:32
