Présentation de l'éditeur :
Toward the close of my fathers public life, it was his intention, frequently expressed, to look over his papers, and to destroy all which might furnish materials for his biography ;and, when casual allusions were made to the possibility of such a record, he often threatened that he would haunt the man who should attempt it. As age crept upon him, however, and he felt himself unequal to heavy labor, other thoughts took possession of his mind. He gradually resigned himself to the conviction that the story of his life and labors must be told, and, after much hesitation, he took steps accordingly. By his will, dated in 1852, he desired his two elder sons to examine all the papers, letters, and correspondence-in his possession at the time of his decease, and privately to destroy such portion thereof as, in their judgment, it might be expedient so to dispose of, leaving his executors to exercise their discretion as to what use should be made of the remainder. This bequest seemed to convey an intimation of his own wishes on the subject His eldest son, of whose character and talents he wasjustly proud, was a minister in the connection to which he himself belonged, and, should that son survive, and feel competent to the undertaking, from him might be expected this last of countless offices of filial reverence and affection.
