'His life was so pregnant in meaning, so rich in noble deeds, so full of
that spiritual vitality which serves to quicken life in others; it bore
witness to so many principles which we can only fully understand when we
see them in action: it presented so many real pictures of dauntless
courage and of Christian heroism, that we welcome gratefully the attempt
to reproduce it which has resulted in the volume before us. Miss Wilson
has entered lovingly upon her task, and has accomplished it well.'
