Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Model Pastor: A Memoir of the Life and Correspondence of Rev. Baron Stow, D. D This volume is a compilation. The editor has endeavored to make such a selection from the mass of materials placed in his hands as, in his judgment, will interest the largest number of readers. In the journal of Dr. Stow there is an entry which has been kept constantly in mind in the preparation of this Memoir. It bears the date of October 3, 1829. "Reading memoir of Legh Richmond, by Grimshawe. The compiler shows himself too much. A biographer should leave his biography to be executed by another." Scrupulous care has been taken to bring out in full relief the man whose life we have tried to portray, letting him speak to us in bis journal and correspondence, and through the activities of a long, laborious, and successful professional life. A feeling of continual regret has followed the editor, through his whole work, that he has been obliged to omit so many things that he would gladly have laid before his readers, and which, he doubts not, they would have read with pleasure.
