Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Early Life and Professional Years of Bishop Hobart The present volume consists of two small works, originally published in America, by the Rev. Dr. McVicar, the one entitled "The Early Years," the other "The Professional Life" of the Right Reverend Father in God, Henry Hobart, D.D., late Bishop of New-York. They were sent to the Editor by his Reverend Friend, Dr. McVicar, with a request that he would exert him self to obtain subscriptions for the establishment of a Library to be attached to the Theological Seminary at New-York, - an institution in the welfare of which the late venerable Prelate was known to take the deepest interest. It immediately occurred to the Editor that he might further this object by republishing in this country the two works now presented in one volume to the public. With this view he inquired of his publisher, whether he would be willing to undertake the publication, and to devote half of the profits to the Theological Seminary. Mr. Talboys, with his usual liberality, replied, that "It had pleased God to bless him in the basket and in the store, and he should delight in evincing his gratitude by showing his devotion to the holy and apostolical Church of which he was a member;" he, therefore, proposed to incur all the risk of the publication, and to devote to the Theological Seminary the whole of the profits. To eulogize such conduct would be to waste words. The Editor at the same time admits that this was not his only or his chief object in publishing this volume.
