Overview

Excerpt from Autobiography of O. P. Alderman: From Early Life to the Fifty-Fifth Year of His Age, Up to January 1, 1874 Merchantville, N. Y

When a book is published, I believe it is customary for the author to write a preface, stating some of the reasons why the work comes to the gaze of a criticising public. I have only to say that when I made a profession of religion I felt that I could tell my friends how easily I was led into sin, in such a manner as would cause them to shun evil and cleave to that which is good.

I have not been as successful as I could wish, but feel that I have done something in the cause of religion and truth.

By the request of my friends who have expressed an anxiety to read the work, and knowing it must soon appear if they ever enjoy the privilege, and as I often feel that my work on earth may soon close.
