(Miner, Ovid)
"I've No Thought of Dying So." An authentic narrative (No. 320)
Bifolium, 4p; series pagination (321)-324pp. Very Good with light foxing and tidemark to upper edge, but crisp. Identified in The American Tract Society Documents, 1824-1925 (1972) as by Rev. Ovid Miner, and described as "the assertion of a young infidel, who died suddenly, and without hope." A man professes belief in Christian values (despite being "nurtured in infidelity") and says he will get around to practicing them once he's secured enough money and doesn't have such bad influences around him. "I know it's wrong, and I always feel sorry. But when I'm among those fellows, I can't very well help it."
