After some time I received light on the subject of restitution. Although
I had never committed any grave or serious wrongs against any one, yet
I need to confess some things and to make proper restitution to certain
individuals. This was very humbling to me, as I was generally considered
a good boy and a model young man in the community where I was born and
reared and where I still resided at the time of my restoration to the
favor of God. In fact, many seemed to believe that I was a pretty good
Christian at the very time I was in my backslidden condition. It,
therefore, took a great deal of grace to humble myself sufficiently to
make these wrongs right. However, I was always blessed in making the
required restitution.
