Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoir of the Life and Episcopate of Edward Feild, D.D: Bishop of Newfoundland, 1844-1876 The memory of a great man is nit public property in the sense which would justify any one in assuming uninvited the office of his biographer. I certainly should not have ventured to have compiled the present book had I not been requested to do so by those who were nearest to the great Bishop of Newfoundland, who loved him best and to whom his memory is most dear. To have been, however unworthy, the chronicler of an Episcopate so noble, and of a life so saintly, has been to me a precious privilege, a labour of love and of solemn interest. I desired to add to my own record of his manifold labours some independent testimony to the value of such a faithful, chivalrous life to the Church, both at home and abroad, and I sought for it from that eminent statesman, who, amid the manifold cares of his high position, has always found time in which to promote the best interests of religion, and by his office of Treasurer to the Colonial Bishoprics´ Fund since its establishment in 1841 to the present time, has shown continued sympathy with the extension of the Church of which he is a devout and faithful son.
