POST THIS FOR YOUR FAMILY.
[symbol of hand pointing to right] ATTENTION! HUSH AND HARK!
A Cosmopolite, upon the Journey of Life from Time to Eternity --
entreats thee! O Reader! to serious consideration upon the value of thy
Soul -- with the shortness and uncertainty of Time --and the duty you owe
to GOD with the awful consequence of living and dying in Sin!

II. Remember that by Nature you are in a fallen degenerate state --
therefore, ye must be REGENERATED & "BORN OF THE SPIRIT'
--"For without holiness, no man shall see the LORD!" Hence be
prevailed upon to take thy ETERNITY into the account -- with the
consequences annexed to Vice and Virtue -- and

PREPARE TO [hole in paper, missing word] THY GOD!!!

Avoiding all known sin, with unnecessary wicked company --and
never lay down to rest without committing yourself into the protection
of kind Providence -- and when you awake, give thanks -- Thus begin,
spend and close every day with GOD -- having your mind staid upon
HIM -- and your heart drawn out after HIM in a praying frame --Living
to-day as you would wish to die, and be willing to account to GOD in
CHRIST JESUS --that you may be happy here, and hereafter, in HIS
KINGDOM!!

LORENZO DOW.
November 2, 1815.

* WARS - PESTILENCE - EARTHQUAKES and FAMINE are the sword and scourge
of GOD - the spirit of Missionary is prevalent --the times are eventful -- and the signs are ominous;
but it shall be well with those whose GOD is the LORD!!
