"His life has been a busy one, and it is a matter for congratulation that he has yielded to the importunities of his friends and published a volume of his 'Reminiscences." It abounds in character sketch and anecdote, a model of what such a volume ought to be. It has not a dull page."-The Advertiser, Boston.

"The book is a most delightful one, and any reader who fairly begins it will not lay it down willingly until it be finished."-The Picayune, New

Orleans.

"The book abounds in pleasant anecdote incidents of Church history in the United States and of notable characters among prelates and pastors. These will render it of especial interest to course, more familiar to others. But the in tense human interest that pervades the books and its genial manner, will effectually prevent its seeming a dull volume to any one."-Inter-Ocean Chicago.
