Description
Excerpt from The Man With the Book, or Memoirs of John Ross of Brucefield
Coming, peculiar pains have been taken to give Mr. Ross''s views as he held them, and, as far as possible, as he expressed them. Most of the statements are given, not merely from a general recollection of his views, but from special recollections of actual conversations. Where this was the case,'' much of: his own wording has, I am satisfied, been consciously and unconsciously reproduced, as some who knew him best will readily recognize. Though these chapters may occasion the most fault finding, they will, I am persuaded, be the most prized, as containing truths not often met with and sorely needed. If, in any measure, this little book is meet for the Master''s use, it shall, in that measure, prove a power for good; if not, it might better never.
