The death of a clergyman while engaged in maintaining a great reform, and under circumstances of the deepest atrocity, will vindicate the narration of his history. Especially is this tnie in the present case. But no life is valuable disconnected from vahiable work. For these reasons, as well as from a desire to honor the memory of a man who was father, friend, and hero in one, and, if possible, to project his influence beyond his death, I have spoken with his words at every opportunity, and kept steadily in view the one subject of Prohibition. The work of the pastor has been sacrificed to the work of the temperance advocate. In endeavoring to portray the man growing up into the reformer, chronology has been subordinated to history, and at the last this has naturally developed into a single appeal to law. If this book shall add anything to the cause for which he died, its writing will have been amply justified. The A uthor.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the life and career of George C. Haddock, a minister known for his dedication to the temperance movement. Born into a family with a history of abolitionism and religious activism, Haddock's path toward the ministry began at an early age, though he initially pursued a career in printing. Inspired by his mother to enter the ministry, Haddock eventually became a powerful advocate for the cause of temperance, known for his unwavering stance against the liquor industry.
