Description:Excerpt from In Memoriam, John Larkin Lincoln, 1817-1891This volume is published as a memorial of my father, but it is not a memoir, for this I did not dare attempt. I have endeavored only to select and edit such of his writings, public and private, as seemed most characteristic and appropriate. The manuscripts were intended solely for his own eye, and were written hastily at night after hard days' work, and with many alterations and interlineations. The proofreading demanded what I do not pos sess, -a fund of learning, full and accurate, and akin to his own. This has compelled very slow progress for almost two full years, and an amount of hard work and study which I had not imagined, and which found me not prepared. Many times on many pages have I wished that even for a moment I might turn to him for the clear explanation I well knew he could give of some place that seemed extremely hard to me. In the printing of Latin words, following some of the earlier of his published papers, diph thongs have been printed with the ligature, and some other old fashioned methods have been used, which nowi could not alter even if I would. The detection and correction of a number of errors in the stereotyped proofs is due to assistance kindly ren dered by my friend and classmate Professor William Carey Poland, and which I gratefully acknowledge. I wish also to thank the many friends to whom I am indebted for information, and especially to thank Professor George P. Fisher, D. D., for his appreciative and scholarly Memorial Address.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
