Description
Excerpt from Davis, Soldier Missionary: A Biography of Rev. Jerome D. Davis, D.D., Lieut.-Colonel of Volunteers and for Thirty-Nine Years a Missionary of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions in Japan
Sir Sidney Lee, in his Principles of Biography, states that the test of the worthiness Of a life for perpetuation is, did this man render a unique service, which, had he not lived, would not have been performed?
The test is a difficult one for a son to make for his father, and, in this case, has been left to those who knew him best as fellow-missionary, as well as to world-wide critics of missions.
