Sermon on Alcohol and Doom of the Drunken Era

A fiery sermon denounces alcoholism as a plague corrupting families and society. The speaker warns that drink decays moral life, ruins inheritances, and fills hospitals and prisons while urging teetotalism as the path to salvation and national virtue. He contrasts the living with the dead and recalls a preacher’s call to repentance.
