Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Devil of Names, and Other Lectures and Sermons At the request of many friends, this volume of lectures and sermons by the late Rev. John Ellis Lanceley has been prepared for publication. Some of these lectures have been delivered in nearly all the cities and towns of the Dominion from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and in a great many places in the United States. To the thousands who have listened to them they will be of special interest. Bearing, as they do, the marks of "the vanished hand," they will lack, however, the magnetism they once possessed when delivered by "the voice that is still." It is not thought that Mr. Lanceley had ever conceived the idea of publishing his lectures. Had he thought so, he certainly would have left the manuscripts in better shape than they were found, for his sense of literary excellence was so keen and high that he dreaded anything from his pen to appear in a crude and unfinished condition. Were he living, he would expunge, prune, and polish many sentences now found in the published volume. In his absence, we can only adhere strictly to the manuscript in its original form, and implore the critic to refrain from using the knife too vigorously.
