Excerpt from Faith's Certainties A peculiar and pathetic interest attaches to this volume of collected essays by]. B. -to use his familiar signature, by which he will be affectionately remembered in every quarter of the globe. They include his latest writings, and the delicate thread of his life must have been almost at breaking-point when some of them were penned.

That is the underlying conviction and inspiration of this series of essays, which therefore fitly bears the title of Faith's Certainties.
