About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1849.

He could speak only in a whisper, and that but little at a time. He usually carried with him a slate and pencil, and answered in writing." The expounders of Divine Providence placed on this event different interpretations. Some said it was a judgment because his mother kept him back from the work of God. Others said it was that he might be kept at home, to do a great work in his own neighbourhood. Perhaps the design was with him as with Paul "lest he should be exalted above measure." Certain it is that his station, his benevolence, and his reputation for piety, made him at this time, to be, by many, almost idolized. Health and wealth, ...
