Excerpt from Friends of a Half Century: Fifty Memorials With Portraits of Members of the Society of Friends The Society of Friends possesses a rich inheritance in its wealth at material for interesting and instructive biography, which con tinnes to accumulate as generation follows generation. The aim of this Work is to utilize some of this material, and, by placing a sun picture side by side with a word picture, to give to its readers the opportunity of looking upon the features, and some times the figures of those whose lives and characters are briefly depicted in the accompanying sketches - a combination which may help many minds more completely to realize both fact and teaching. We have confined ourselves to the long roll of those who have departed from amongst us during the fifty years, 1840-1890, and have limited the number of these to fifty. In the selection we have by no means attempted to include all who might be re garded as most worthy of a place in it but rather have aimed at a series which might pretty widely illustrate the variety in the better life of the Society.
