PREFACE.

life with which these volumes are concerned was too

short, and too much the life of a student, to be found rich in incident. But such lives may have a value and an interest of their own. In the scheme of Providence, the meditative man has his relation to the man of action. The latter is much more schooled than he suspects, either directly or indirectly, by the former.

The one effort of the life here narrated, was to realize a generous culture for itself, and to minister towards its realization in others. Its sympathies extended to everything that might conduce to make men wiser, better, and happier.
