Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memoir of Joshua Watson, Vol. 1 of 2
There was, therefore, nothing left for those to whom his papers, or such papers as he had pre served, were consigned, but, by such light as was thus afforded, and by diligent enquiries made in all quarters among surviving friends, with more labour than can easily be conceived, to put together such a continuous narrative as could be constructed from unsifted and somewhat unpli able materials. Imperfect as it is, and disap pointing as they fear it will be to many who think of him with love and reverence, still they trust there will be something recorded which will leave a salutary and affecting im pression of a man worthy to be named with the benevolent friend of his youth, the excellent William Stevens, and to be remembered here after with a portion of the honour paid to the wise and merciful men of earlier days, whose righteousness hath not been forgotten.
