More often than not, in the past, we have tended to be apologetic of our rural background and lack of sophistication.

I have no ill will in my heart against anybody in this world.

Over the past few years, many of us have increasingly begun to question the direction and meaning of our society as it has developed over the past several centuries.

From this process has emerged a parallel process of translating traditional working and living values into a new political and economic power-a power increasingly based upon the strength of money and those material things money can purchase.

I, Alexander B. Campbell, make this statement of the cause of my death to relieve the coroner of the necessity of an inquest, and also let my friends know the motive that led me to take my own life.

I hope and trust the infinite, the eternal, and merciful and loving God. I worship Him and feel no guilt in my heart before him for what I am going to do.
