Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methodist Heroes of Other Days The present generation of Methodists, it is feared, know few of the names of the Methodists of former days, and still less of the manners and speech of the olden time. Some have an idea that the preachers were uneducated, ignorant ranters, and that their hearers were emotional and easily impressed. The preachers of the early days were sometimes ignorant men, but filled with the love Of Christ and burning with zeal to extend his kingdom. Many were graduates of Brush College, as they facetiously called the itinerant method of study. Their saddlebags contained their library, and whenever they could they studied. Whenever an Older preacher was met the younger one would ask questions and receive instruction and advice.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Standard-Bearers: True Stories of Heroes of Law and Order In the foreword of an earlier book, Justice to All, I have told the story of the dastardly murder and heroic death of Samuel Howell, carpenter, ambushed by robbers on a lonely country road in the State of New York. In the book itself I have tried to tell the story, equally heroic, of the Pennsylvania State Police. The slaying of that fine young American laboring man, too true of heart to buy his life with his honor, unmasked once more an old and shameful fact - that the Empire State connived at such tragedies - accepted them without feeling, without action, and without remark. The trade of robber and murderer, so long as exercised upon the poor, was practically a snug and safe employment in rural New York. The rich, like lords of feudal castles, lived in their big houses surrounded by their own garrisons of servants and guards. But those of less estate, the farmers, the laborers, the women and girl-children in small isolated homes, or traversing lonely roads as perforce they must, - in a word, all the scattered population of the countryside, - were stolidly ignored by the one power morally responsible for their safety and their peace. The very government that enacted the laws treated its own enactments as "scraps of paper." The criminal world, in consequence, remained at perfect liberty to do the same.
