Excerpt from Life of Prof. Albert Hopkins
Such men, from their rareness if for nothing else, the world is eager to see and know; while the record of their growth and conquests will ever be an inspira tion and a guide to all who, like them, form right conceptions of human life and are bent upon reaching its true destiny. It was at first feared that no adequate material for such a record of Prof. Hopkins could be secured. Not long after his death, however, it was ascertained that during almost his entire Christian life he had kept a Journal in which he recorded with rare fidelity his own spiritual progress. This has been carefully studied, with what results the reader must determine for himself.
