Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of the Right Reverend Samuel Wilberforce, D.D, Vol. 2 of 3: Lord Bishop of Oxford and Afterwards of Winchester, With Selections From His Diaries and Correspondence The lamented death of Canon Ashwell at the time when the concluding pages of the first volume of this work were passing through the printer´s hands, has made it necessary to find a new Editor for the subsequent volumes. Having in the event been obliged to undertake the task which he left unfinished, I feel that I ought to state the reasons which induced me to incur so heavy a responsibility. Doubtless, as a general rule, a son is the person least capable of writing his father´s life. Accordingly, in conjunction with Mr. Murray, I endeavoured to discover a writer in whom the various conditions necessary for carrying on the work were approximately satisfied; but to every practical suggestion that was made some objection occurred which in the end proved fatal. My next step was to consult a few of my Father´s trusted friends, and particularly some of those who had originally suggested Canon Ashwell´s name in connection with the work. They insisted that I must do what I could myself, and they generously offered me their counsel and assistance. Without such substantial encouragement it would have been impossible to have entered upon, and still more impossible to have per severed in, such an enterprise.
