Reminiscences And Incidents Of A Long Life Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Reminiscences and Incidents of a Long Life This work is given to the public. At the earnest re quest of many of our most prominent ministers of the gospel, and a great multitude of lay members, amongst whomai have labored, either as pastor, or evangelist. Its preparation was commenced many years ago. A large portion of it was written Some time before Rev. Dr. J eter began the publication of his Recollections of a Long Life, in the Religious Herald, of Rich mond, Va. 50 that, although there may be some re semblance between his Recollections, and my Re miniscences, it must not be supposed that my book is a mere imitation of his. Its publication has been de layed to the present time, so that it might contain as nearly all of my life and labors as possible. I am now within a few weeks of seventy-nine years of age. I have been preaching the gospel fifty-nine years. And it is not likely that I will be able to perform much more public ministerial work. The incidents related in the book are mostly those that have fallen under my own observation. I trust they will be interesting and profitable to all who may read them. God has honored me greatly in my ministry and many thousands have been led to Jesus for salvation, through my humble in strumentality. To his adorable name be all the glory!
