Présentation de l'éditeur
Immediately after my fathers death, I received numerous requests to undertake the task of writing his biography. It appeared to me at the time that such a task might easily have been entrusted to abler hands, and a stricter impartiality at the same time have been secured. Though four years have elapsed since that event, still, with the exception of a few articles in French and English newspapers, and a short notice by the Eev. John Augustine Bost, no record has been furnished of my fathers career. Under these circumstances, I have yielded to the appeals of those friends who seemed to think that, in some respects, I possessed special qualifications for recording his history. This they argued from their knowledge of the fact that I was most intimately associated with my father from the very nature of my own studies, and enjoyed the privilege Published in 1865. I eagerly seize this occasion of thanking my old friend, in my name, and in the name of all my family, not only for the pages referred to above, so full of friendly feeling, but also for all his kindness to my father in the last years of his life. A mongst the obituary articles in periodicals, the pages in the Record (8th June 1864), written by a friend of my father of long standing, are especially worthy of note.
