Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Truth About Opium: Being a Refutation of the Fallacies of the Anti-Opium Society and a Defence of the Indo-China Opium Trade As to Mr. B. Broomball's remarks respecting my book I have very little to say there is nothing in them. Like Mr. Storrs Turner, he has found it a poser, and has said very 'little respecting it. When your Opponent gets the worst of an argument, if he does not honestly acknowledge his discomfiture, he generally follows one of two courses - either he loses his temper and takes to scolding, or he suddenly discovers something wonderfully funny in your arguments which no one else was able to detect. Mr. B. Broomhall eschews the former, but adopts the latter course. He selects a paragraph or two, and says, That is ludicrous, but he never condescends to enlighten his readers as to where the fun lies, or in what the drollery consists.

About thirty-five years of age, thor oughly educated, of marked conversational powers, and having travelled in many countries, he told me of things relating to the practice of this vice by Americans that at first excited my incredulity.

Download or read book The Truth About Opium written by William H. Brereton and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-05 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: But if Mr. Storrs Turner has declined the contest, an acolyte of his, Mr. B. Broomhall, -who appears to be the Secretary of the Inland China Mission, and one of the "Executive Committee" of the Anti-Opium Society, -comes upon the scene like King Hamlet's ghost, declaring that he "could a tale unfold, whose lightest breath would harrow up your souls, freeze the hot blood, and make each particular hair to stand on end." Plagiarising, if not pirating, my title, with a colourable addition of the word "Smoking," he produces, in November 1882, a compilation entitled "The Truth about Opium-Smoking," rather a thick pamphlet, made up of excerpts from all the writings and speeches, good, bad, and indifferent, that have been published and delivered within the last thirty years on the Anti-Opium side of the question, with some critical matter of his own, from all of which it appears most conclusively that he, Mr. B. Broomhall, is perfectly innocent of the subject he undertakes to enlighten the world upon. I think I see through this gentleman and his objects pretty well. With respect to the authors of these writings and speeches, I may say at once that I hold them in as much respect as Mr. B. Broomhall does himself.
