Book Description
Excerpt from Sermons, and Other Miscellaneous Pieces, Vol. 1 of 2 Among other literary projects enters tained by Dr. Hunter, and which death, alas! Prevented him from executing, was that of publishing a selection of letters which had come under his observation, written chiefly by members of his own fa mily, and applicable to, because they had arisen out of, the varied circumstances of real life and real feeling. The idea was first suggested to him by the accumulation of letters written by his son Thomas. The death of this much loved child only tended to strengthen his resolution of erecting from his own productions some memorial to his memory. In conformity to this de sign he had already planned a preface, and sketched the order of the work', when death intervened, and, for a time, blasted the project.
