Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Father Bertrand Wilberforce of the Order of Preachers Raphael Drane, whose Memoir Father Wilberforce wrote, bore him a special affection, and her predecessor, Mother Mary Imelda Poole, esteemed him no less highly. The compila tion of his Life and Letters has, therefore, been undertaken as a tribute of gratitude to the memory of an old and valued friend, and as such, is offered to all who knew Father Wilber force, and, more especially, to his own Religious Brethren, the Fathers of the English Province of friar-preachers. In such a life as Father Bertrand's there is little matter to be found for the biographer's pen, and the work of the compiler has almost necessarily been confined to giving a slight sketch of his early years, and to the tracing in outline his apostolic career, connecting the letters with the life by such links as were needed to make the whole intelligible. The letters themselves reveal much of the writer's inner life, and on this - by far the most interesting portion Of a man's history further light is thrown from many little notes and memoranda found among his papers after death.
