"_One of the most real, interesting, and instructive pieces of
religious biography of the present day._"--Nonconformist.
"_We have waited for the publication of the second and last
volume of this interesting, we may well say entertaining,
biography, before introducing it to our readers. It is now
complete, and furnishes one of the most various and delightful
portraits of a fine, sturdy, old representative of antient
theology and earnest piety, relieved by very sweet and engaging
pictures of New England society in its religious circles, and
the ways and usages of the men and women who lived, and loved,
and married, and had families, nearly a century since.... And
now we must lay down these very delightful volumes. We trust we
have sufficiently characterized them, while there are, of
course, reminiscences, pictures of places and of persons, we
have been unable even to mention. It was an extraordinary
family altogether; a glow of bright, affectionate interest
suffuses all in charming sunshine. It was a life of singular
purpose, usefulness, and determination; and we think ministers
especially, and of ministers young students especially, might
read it, and read it more than once, to advantage.... Without
attempting any more words, we hope we have sufficiently
indicated our very high appreciation of, and gratitude for,
this charming and many-sided biography of a most robust and
healthy life._"--The Eclectic.
"_All that the old man writes is clever and
sagacious._"--Athenæum.
