Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Of John R. Moffett By request of the friends and relatives of the late John R. Moffett I have prepared this memoir of the martyr-hero of the Temperance and Prohibition cause in Virginia. To me it was a labor of pleasure and love. He was my personal friend, my yoke-fellow and colaborer in the gospel. Under many difficulties the work is now completed. That it has many defects is freely admitted. These are not so serious, it is hoped, as to mar the value of the volume as an addition to the bio-graphical literature of our country. I have kept ever in mind the one thought of showing the man, his character and work, in the environment under which that character was formed, and the work done. To the many friends who have sent data and otherwise helped in obtaining a proper estimate of the man I am very grateful. I am also greatly indebted to Judge W. W. Moffett, of Salem, Virginia, who prepared the chapters on the trial (24, 25 and 26) and for other invaluable aid rendered in the preparation of the book; also to Rev. J. B. Taylor, D. D., who, with Judge Moffett, read the proof. I have no apology to offer for any sentiment expressed in its pages. It is the record of a pure, true, manly life, and as such, I send it on its way, praying the blessing of heaven upon it, and upon whatever of inspiration for good it may arouse in the human heart.
