Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Song of the Stone Wall
But his bright spirit had inherited no trace of their harshness and gloom. The windows of his soul Opened to the sunlight of a joyous faith.
His optimism and genial humor inspired glad ness and good sense in others. With an oldstory he prepared their minds to receive new ideas, and with a parable he opened their hearts to generous feelings. All men loved him cause he loved them. They know that his heart was in their happiness, and that hrs humanity braced their sorrows. Ln him the weak to a friend, the unprotected, a champion. Though a herald and proclaimer of peace, he could fight stubbornly and passionately on the side of jus tice. His was a lovable, uplifting greatness which drew all men near and ever nearer to God and to each other. Like his ancestors, he dreamed of a land of freedom founded on the love of God and the brotherhood of man, a land where each man shall achieve his share of happiness and learn the work of manhood to rule himself and lend a hand.
