Book Description
Excerpt from Reminiscences of the Late Rev. William T. Sprole, D. D From his example we are encouraged to imitate his virtues, and to follow in his pathways. It seems beneficial to dwell on the characteristics of the great and good; to enter into their experiences, and to study their habits. A review of their traits of character tends to stimulate our own endeavors, and lures us to Copy after them. Above that of any other, the life of a faithful Christian min ister portrays phases of incident and interest, but its history deepens into pathos, as we stand, in contemplation, near his new-made grave. The memory of such, though blessed, is mingled with regret. That of the subject of this sketch is fresh and fragrant; yet the undertone of sadness is very deep as one attempts to write of him. He had such vigorous life; such uninterrupted health; such strength of constitution, such manly form, and such physical endurance, - all which gave so much promise of an unusually lengthened life, that it is sad to think of him now as dead, and of his earthly companionship and friendship as gone forever.
