Excerpt from Memoir of the Reverend Charles A. Chastel De Boinville: Compiled From His Journal and His Letters IT is now fifteen years since I won the friendship of Charles de Boinville, whom I had long heard described, by an aunt who thoroughly appreciated him, as the most perfect Christian she had ever known. She it was who introduced us, saying, You will love Charles. In 1864. I visited him at bar-le-duc, and spent several days as a member of his family, never to be forgotten for the enjoyment, while they glided by too quickly, and for the elevating memories they have left behind. Our intercourse has since then been frequent, and the estimation in which he has been held by me rose steadily with every opportunity afforded. His loving nature led him to reciprocate esteem, perhaps unduly, and while shrinking from the responsibility involved in an acceptance of her proposal, I felt both gratified and surprised when invited by the Widow of my friend to edit a Memorial of his life.
