Excerpt from The Man-Traps of the City: A Young Man's Warning to Young Men HE following words, spoken on some Sunday even ings past, were originally prepared, by personal exploration and investigation, for the young men of my own congregation. But the audiences who gathered to hear them have been so unexpectedly large, overflow ing in each instance the possibilities of the building, that it has been deemed best to give these plain warn ings the larger influence of this permanent home. They are published without change, just as they were dcliv ered, and hence lack any studied care or revision. But they are sent forth with the prayer that God, for whose glory they were spoken, may bless them in saving some souls from the man-traps of sin.
