Description
Morris writes to Finley about his attempts to deal with sin both inside and outside of his Columbus pulpit. He frequently gives the people a "pulpit malling." He doesn't sugar coat difficult things. He has gotten himself into several "scrapes" regarding sinful behavior. On the occasion of a Christmas Eve dancing party, he "let off a full charged Kentucky broadside" from the pulpit. He is determined to let loose on gambling houses, whiskey shops, and other forms of "Devilism." Abstract Number - 1021
