Book Descriptions:
Excerpt from From Life to Life: Or How Our Preachers Die

In the preparation of this little volume I have been actuated mainly by a desire to benefit my ministerial brethren. The testimonies presented will, I trust, not only inspire in them greater confidence in the religion of Christ to save in death, but will furnish a class of illustrations for the pulpit not to be found anywhere else in book form.

The "last words" of nearly two hundred and fifty ministers and ministers' wives are recorded in the following pages. Others are not mentioned because their biographical notices, which appeared in the Religious Telescope and other publications of the Church, did not contain any of their last utterances.

It will be observed that names do not appear in regular chronological order. I did not aim to give dates, but only to designate, as far as possible, the conferences to which the departed belonged. Where this is not done, except in the case of bishops and others especially well known throughout the Church, it is because the death notices omitted the important item.

It has been a privilege, I must say, to spend a little of my time in gathering up the hallowed utterances of so many of the great and good of the Church, who triumphed through grace, and then passed "from life to life." Blessed words! Many of them were borne back to us from the very suburbs of the heavenly Jerusalem, and are immortal.

As I searched out these testimonies, from one source and another, I found in them a blessing for my own heart, and was constrained again and again to say, "Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his."

In this revised and enlarged edition the names and dying testimonies of a few preachers' wives are added.
