[Letter] 1877 Jan. 23, Laurel Hill P.O., Richmond County, N.C. to [John A. Broadus] / John Monroe. 1877.

Monroe sent Broadus a package of Religious heralds and a pamphlet "entitled War and peace. The papers contained articles by [Richard] Fuller and [William] Hooper "treating of the enormous evils of war. In the small pamphlet, an attempt is made to show how war may be prevented, and the inestimable blessings of peace secured. I prepared the pamphlet a few years ago consisting chiefly of extracts from the published writings of Franklin, Chalmers, Wayland, Spurgeon and others." In the pamphlet he suggested some methods to prevent war and secure peace. Monroe had sent Fuller a copy of the pamphlet "two or three years ago," but he had no way of knowing if they led Fuller to write the articles. "I have been in the ministry now almost fifty-two years ... before I go hence, I would rejoice to see the dawning of the day of peace promised in Isaiah 2 and Micah 4."
