Excerpt from Memoir of the Life of Henry Ware, Jr., Vol. 1 of 2 The purpose had in view, and the plan followed, in this Memoir, will be obvious on its perusal; but the reader will enter upon it to greater advantage, if they are suggested to him in advance. The purpose has been to exhibit its subject, at all times of his life, in all the varieties of his character - not merely as a minister, a professor, a man of the public; but also as a son, a brother, a husband, a father, and a friend -not merely as a man of serious thoughts; of solemn occupations, of weighty purposes; but in all his other moods, cheerful, lively, gay, jocose, and, if it so seem to any, even trivial. The plan has been to tell the story of his life, and illustrate the formation and developement of his character, by the introduction of materials which will do it indirectly. I have endeavored to say nothing in my own words, which could be said in those of another, or which could be inferred from any thing said by him self. A very free use has therefore been made of the letters and papers of himself and others though the amount selected bears but a small proportion to the whole mass from which the selection has been made.
