Mr. Holbrook, can I ask you a question?
gpt
If a man should tell you he thought it would be mean in him to turn around and go to serving God, after he had found out he had but a little while to live, when he had cheated Him out of all the rest of his life, what would you say?

I think, said Mr. Holbrook,

I would be very likely to ask him whether he supposed he would feel any less mean for cheating God out of the last year of his life, simply because he had been doing so all the other years. Because a man has been doing wrong for forty years, I don't know why he should add another year of wrong; I should think he might much better turn around, and make all the amends he could.

I know he would. If you would only go and see him, Mr. Holbrook, and explain that to him, I would be _so_ glad.
