Memoir of Adoniram Judson - Being a Sketch of His Life and Missionary Labors #255285

So far as the work professes to be historical, great pains have been taken to make it reliable. It is not improbable, however, that an error, here and there, may have escaped notice. We have consulted no author who is faultless in in dates; and if, in some instances, we have been misled by works that are denominated standard, and have received indiscriminate and unqualified praise, and in others are guilty of misleading by our own carelessness, we have only to ask of the candid critic, whose services we covet rather than deprecate, that our faults be pointed out in kindness and christian love. Two or three works, commemorative of the name and services of Mr. Judson, have already appeared; and one of them, a lengthy and eloquent discourse on his life and character, is of so low a price, yet of so high a value.
