Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Sketch of the Origin, Progress and Work of the St. George's Society of New York, A. D. 1786 to 1886: With Memoirs of Its Presidents and Others Prominent in Its History
The true Saint George was likewise born in Cap padocia, or, as some assert, in Syria, of Christian parents in exalted position, by whom he was brought up in the true religion and fear of God. He had no sooner reached the years of discretion than he lost his father, but bravely encountering the enemies of his faith he departed with his bereaved mother into Palestine, of which she was a native.
