Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Church Work in British Columbia: Being a Memoir of the Episcopate of Acton Windeyer Sillitoe, D.D., D. C. L., First Bishop of New Westminster Our only qualification for writing this short preface to Mr. Gowen´s excellent work is that we loved, and still warmly love, our old Bishop. He was to us, for years, not Bishop only, but father, brother, guide, and friend. Perhaps some apology is needed for our rashness, for we are not men of great reputation or position, either in the Church or the world. Nor can we lay claim to the possession of what are called "literary" gifts or experience, for we have seldom seen ourselves in print. Love makes us bold. When others, greater and better men, and in every way more fitted for the task than ourselves, were, for various reasons, unable to take it in hand, it was given to us by those we could not, if we would, refuse. This must be our plea for the kind indulgence of our friends. For ourselves, and those who were closely bound to Acton Windeyer Sillitoe by ties of kindred and friendship, we gratefully thank Mr. Gowen for giving us this memoir, and for all the valuable time and work he has so generously and lovingly expended upon its production.
