Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Francis William Crossley Frank Crossley was a nineteenth-century saint, whom Francis of Assisi might have recognised as a brother in faith and spirit. It was my happiness to make his acquaintance on his first settling in Manchester, and to know him intimately in times of trial and of success, when struggling and when prosperous, through many phases of belief and modes of action, and in all to see him like himself and not unlike his Lord. I am thankful, therefore, for the opportunity of thus associating myself with the loving hands which, in the following pages, have outlined so truly Christian a life, even though a preface may seem superfluous. That life was recognised by all who knew it even slightly and unsympathetically as beautiful in its unworldliness, its faithfulness to conscience, its unstinted liberality, and its self-oblivion. To many it brought inspiration and grave questionings as to their own duty as Christians. To those who were closest to him, his character seemed like some pellucid sea which could never "cast up mire and dirt," however disturbed, but was pure and translucent to its deepest depths.
