What Companionships here! – The
lures of those whose "house is the way to
hell going &c [etc.].

The infatuation of the gambling saloon –
& the lottery – & the wayside trapper.

The excitements & enticements, & sheer
madness of the of drinking houses –
Oh when shall these destructions cease!

When shall we have the peace, love,
& joy of sweet & pure society for all?
When shall we have other than gam. [gambling]
Saloons as places of pub. [public] exchange?

When shall men learn sobriety – cease
to pour drink in, that lets life out –
yea that whelms men in ruin ~
