Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Mary Lyon Every book has many authors; the title-page names but one. To all those who in countless ways have furthered the making of this book, I gratefully acknowledge my debt: men and women who knew Miss Lyon personally; their sons and daughters; alumnae of Mount Holyoke and people holding no affiliation with it, some of them concerned with other schools; members of the college faculty who throughout the work have given me so wise a seconding. The warm helpfulness which Miss Lyon evoked in life has met her biographer at every turn. The book is immediately derived from a request made several years ago by President Woolley, voicing a demand that has been gathering force through more than thirty years. In its preparation all known manuscripts bearing intimately or remotely on Miss Lyon's life have been read, but it is not unlikely that some writings exist which have escaped the inquisitor's eye.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Miss. Mary Lyon: Of New Haven, Conn It is true that the sincere believer has sorrows which the world does not experience; but he has seasons of communion with his heavenly Father, which he would not exchange for millions of worlds. At times he feels the dawnings of celestial peace in his soul, arising from scriptural evidence of his union to Christ; and can adopt the language of the apostle: The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God. With him, death is disarmed of his sting, and he can look forward undismayed to that tremendous day; When the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements melt with fervent heat. 0' that all those who are feeding on the husks of this world, and who consider the rational confidence and peace of the Christian, as delusions of the imagination, knew by per sonal experience, what these things mean.

Certainly, the men and women who have been most useful require least eulogy. The object of this sketch is to give in fewest words the essence of a noble life. Miss Lyon's work can be better seen, from this standpoint, in the History of Time than from any former one, and now, as her child, The Mount Holyoke Seminary is rising as a Phœnix from its ashes, it seems desirable that we should review it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Power of Christian Benevolence: Illustrated in the Life and Labors of Mary Lyon The Power of Christian Benevolence illustrated in the Life and Labors of Mary Lyon, compiled by Edward glitchcock, D. D., LL. D., President of Am herst College, with the assistance of others, was originally published at Northampton by Messrs. Hop kins and Bridgman, in 1851, and that edition is con tinned in circulation. That work has been made the basis of this; but much has been omitted, especially in numerous details of the Mount Holyoke Seminary; much has been added, and many parts have been re cast. This has been chiefly done by those who fur nished the principal material for the first edition, and who were long and intimately associated with Miss Lyon in her public labors. Invaluable as their servi ces have been, their names, at their united request, are here omitted, as is also that of the Rev. Dr. Hitch cock from the title-page at his own suggestion. The work is intended as a monument, not to its authors, nor to Miss Lyon, but to His most holy praise through whose mighty power and abounding grace she became what she was, and finished the work which was given her to do.

Download or read book Memoirs of Miss Mary Lyon written by UNKNOWN. AUTHOR and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Miss. Mary Lyon: Of New Haven, Conn These Memoirs are not offered to the pious, as affording an interesting variety; or those soul-stirring details, which are found in the life of the active, and successful minister of the Gospel; or of the devoted female missionary. They are merely presented, as the history of an immortal spirit, from its conversion to God, through its progressive course of sanctification, till it appeared prepared by the influences of the Holy Spirit, to join the society of " the just made perfect" in Heaven. Truth has been the aim of the compiler, and no attempt made to extenuate the imperfections, or give undue prominence, to the virtues of the subject of these Memoirs; or to represent her otherwise, than she appears in her own writings, or in the recollection of friends, who still cherish her memory, as the sweet perfume of a precious ointment. Miss Lyon thought herself constitutionally inclined to melancholy ; and those natural traits of character possessed by individuals before their conversion, generally remain afterwards, and are still prominent features. Divine grace gives them new bias, directs them to different objects, and employs them in different pursuits. St. Paul after his conversion, still retained his distinctive, native characteristics. Some of the Reformers, and modern missionaries, furnish examples of the same kind. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
