Book Description

Excerpt from Mr. Mott's Eulogy on the Late John W. Francis, M.D., LL. D: Being a Discourse on His Life and Character During the four years he was connected with Rutgers College (from 1826 to 1830) he has left no literary remains. A reason for this may be found in the fact, that he was married in 1829. This alli ance was with Miss Maria Eliza Cutler, a lady of refined tastes and social position, and we may pre sume that his attention and spare moments during the interval, were devoted to more congenial pur suits. The conjugal union was to him a life-long source of felicity. Mrs. Francis proved to be a wo man of mind, of strong affections, and complete de votion; able to comprehend his plans, and compe tent and efficient in assisting him to carry them out. She made his house not only pleasant for him, but also attractive to his friends. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
