Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Eliphalet Nott, D.D. LL. D: For Sixty-Two Years President of Union College; With Contribution and Revision by Professor Tayler Lewis The work was not begun, however, without assurance from Prof. Lewis of aid, in the progress of it, in the form of revision and supplementary contributions. It was understood especially, that he was to give, in a distinct chapter or two of the biography, his estimate of Dr. N ott as an educator and as a preacher. The promise has been fulfilled, as the reader will find, in Chapters XII and XXV, which are written wholly by Dr. Lewis. There are other portions furnished by the same hand, and interspersed throughout the volume, such as the remarks on Dr. N ott's Temperance Labors, his Biblical Exegesis, his action in Revivals of Religion, his Interest in Commencement Exercises, his Love for the Young, the singular Youth fulness of his own Style, his Christian deportment in Theological Controversy. The pertinence and value of these several contributions will be at once apparent to the discerning reader, who indeed, will hardly need more to distinguish these passages from the main authorship Of the book, than their style of intimate and confidential reminis cence. The marginal notes furnished by Dr. Lewis hear his own initials. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
