With Malice Toward None, With Charity for All
I, the undersigned, do pledge myself, God helping me, to abstain from all intoxicating liquors, as a beverage.
Feb. 22, 1881
Mrs. R. Best

The hatched blackletter goes by the name of Title Text Open No. 3. The left-leaning script is Bulletin and the wide slab is Antique Extended.
