Excerpt from Tributes to My Father and Mother: And Some Stories of My Life
In the September, 1906, number of the Wake Forest Student I find the following statement concerning my father. I have been told that it was written by Professor Collier Cobb, of Chapel Hill, North Carolina. It con tains a mere outline of a very small part of the services rendered to the Baptists by my father. Doctor William Hooper, a life long friend, wrote a more extended notice, giving more data and more detail; this obituary notice was sent to the Biblical Recorder, a Baptist paper, pub lished in Raleigh, N. C., and edited at that time by a Mr. Richard'mills. It is greatly to be re gretted that this paper of Doctor Hooper was lost, misplaced or purposely suppressed, for it contained matter of the greatest importance concerning my father, written by a master hand and a loving friend. At this time Doc tor Hooper was too old and feeble to reproduce his paper. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
