Excerpt from A Journey to Egypt and the Holy Land, in 1869-1870 IN offering to the public a volume of travels extend ing over countries often visited and described, a few words of explanation may be necessary. For it may be asked, Why publish such a book Our answer is, To meet the wishes of numerous friends, and also to contribute something to the knowledge of the sacred and classical lands within a compass that may be easily read; perhaps moved too by something of the spirit of Juvenal, Shall I be forever 3. Hearer only P* I had for years cherished an intense desire to visit Europe, and especially Palestine, consecrated by the presence and labors of the Prophets, of Christ, and of his Apostles. Without visiting Europe and the Orient, I felt that my education was incomplete, - that there was a vacuum that must be filled up. Through the kindness of the Hon. J. A. J. Cres well, postmaster-general, I procured letters from the Hon. Secretary of State to the consul-general of Egypt, the Consul of Jerusalem, and our Minister at Constantinople Hon. Edward Joy Morris.

Excerpt from Travels in Egypt and the Holy Land Although it is not under an expectation I shall be able to add any thing of importance to the information contained in the works of those travellers who have visited this most interesting region, that I sit down to arrange into a narrative the notes and memoranda of a long journey; yet, it is in the humble hope of contributing something, which may dispose Sceptics and Unbelievers to feel surprised that things of such great antiquity as those customs described in this sacred fountain of truth should have been protected, or kept alive, from those changes incident to the lapse of time and vicissitudes of human affairs, as if these had been preserved in their entire original state, to confirm to all ages, the authenticity of that record which they are so wonderfully calculated to illustrate.
