Cause unknown. It is a strange thing in the human heart that prompts one to take the life of his fellow, under any circumstances. Man has but a few days to live at best, and why not let him have every moment? Is it true that our God has withdrawn from his people, giving them hardness of heart and reprobacy of mind? # # #
