Read the Introduction by Rev. Robert Maguire, D. D.

Three Young Fellows

"Three young fellows.—This introduces an incident of the War. These three young men at first enlisted into the King’s army, but were one day taken prisoners. At the suggestion of Satan they changed sides, and thenceforward served in the army of DIABOLUS. These three men represent three earthly principles, which, according to circumstances, are prepared to serve either master."[2]
