As the writer has proceeded with this delineation it has seemed to grow more and more Clear that the one salient feature, the one dominant characteristic of the whole life, was love; a great boundless overwhelming love for God and man which knew no narrow limits of sect, or race, or place, or time. This it was that drew so many hearts to him in loving pers'onal devotion; it was such a love which carried him along, like a torch of fire, as he was Called, through his whole career. With faith and hope he was wonderfully gifted, but the love that was the essence of his being was the greatest gift of all. If, in some small degree, the study of this character and of his missionary experiences shall be of help to the readers, the aim Of the writer will be attained.
