There is also unfortunately a false curiosity abroad, which seeks to strip the missionary and expose his inmost thoughts. In many instances they have themselves pandered to this vitiated desire, and the reading world has been flooded to a nausea with works recording the thoughts, sentiments, speeches, feelings, and experiences of men, women, and even children, whose lives were all good and useful in their appropriate spheres, but whose biographies, even as prepared by admiring friends, are at t...he best but an epitome of the life of every man, woman, or child with moderate preten sions to intelligence and religious hopes. The grave yards of our land contain myriads of such, and the stones that record their departure tell as briefly but appropriately their worth. Then let them rest. Gen eration upon generation of pious fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters succeed each other beneath the OBJECTIONABLE BIOGRAPHY. 195 sod, and their simple but adamantine obituaries are all-sufficient to speak the tale to the living.
