Excerpt from Memorial of the Centennial Anniversary: Of the First Presbyterian Church, Augusta, Georgia It is sought herein to preserve in a worthy form the proceedings of that memorable occasion; to garner up the wisdom of many minds and the fruitage of rich and manifold experiences; to tell of the things which we have heard and know and which our fathers have told us. So much of the church's history as could be gathered is herein presented; able addresses on Education, Home and Foreign Missions are made record of; place is given the exercises of the Sabbath school on Centennial Sabbath, and under various and proper headings are set forth several phases of the centennial occasion itself, and also the activities by which we have sought to glorify God. The admirable sermon of Rev. Dr. G. B. Strickler on The Distinctive Doctrines of the Presbyterian Church is reluctantly omitted in the volume because the distinguished author says, I am anxious to pre sent, some time in the future, our distinctive doctrines in a popular form that will commend them to some who now are prejudiced against them. We shall anticipate this intended work from Dr. Strickler with confidence in its great polemical value. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Memorial Booklet Issued in Commemoration of the Centennial Anniversary of Lincoln's Birthday For some years we have on this anniversary published a booklet on one of the worthy men of other days. As every one knows, this is Lincoln's Centennial Year; and this fact has determined that our subject now should be the man who, better than any other, caught the spirit and established the work of the builders of our Nation - strong, wise, able, loving, faithful Father Abraham. This is not a life of Lincoln. It is merely a reminder of him. It is not an attempt to tell something new, but simply to tell again - by word and picture to recall the man. Multi tudes love to read about him, to think about him, to talk about him; here, then, those who wish may see his birthplace as it was and as it is to be; the book he studied and the rails he split; his hand and the maul it swung: his home and his tomb; his form and his face; the clear writing of his hand and the clearer thoughts of his brain; reminders all of our Lincoln the one we love the best of all.
