Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence of Rev. William Sparrow, D. D: Late Professor of Systematic Divinity and Evidences, in the Episcopal Theological Seminary of Virginia In the preparation of the following Memoir, regard has been had more especially to the desires and wishes of one class, the largest among those who will give it a perusal, the pupils of Dr. Sparrow, the survivors of the different generations of students who, for nearly half a century, in Ohio and in Virginia, were under his instruction. Details, perhaps of little interest to others, but of much to these, have thus been introduced, portions of correspondence inserted that might have been otherwise omitted, and points amplified which might have been more briefly treated. As belonging to this brotherhood, the writer has had no difficulty in deciding what he would have desired from any one else engaged in his undertaking. What, therefore, he would have wished for himself, he has endeavored to provide for his fellow-pupils. And yet the features of most interest to this class are those that will be apt to prove of interest to others. The hope may not unreasonably be indulged that outside of this peculiar circle, and among acquaintances of other classes, as among those who know of its subject only by name, this memoir may be productive of instruction and benefit. It only needed contact to make manifest Dr. Sparrow´s intellectual greatness. His moral greatness, however, his simplicity, his integrity, his unfeigned and earnest piety, his devotion to the will of God, and to the real welfare of his fellow-men, these, not so immediately noted, nor so much estimated, have their higher value in the way of influence, and can scarcely fail, in a record of this kind, to be recognized. Such record cannot be studied without benefit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
