Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Autobiography of the Rev. William Jay, Vol. 1 of 2: With Reminiscences of Some Distinguished Contemporaries, Selections From His Correspondence, and Literary Remains
Heathenism preserved the ashes of the dead, Christianity embalms the memory of the just. Such men as the rev. William jay belong to no body of Christians, nor to any particular na tion, but to the Church and mankind at large. His simply beautiful devotional exercises have found their way to almost every land, until his name has become a household word, rendering any introduction to his life unnecessary.
