Excerpt from Sermons, Addresses and Essays The book is issued as a real though very inadequate memorial of a life devoted to the noblest ideals and of a robust and rare intelligence - a life and an intelligence such as only those who knew and loved Herbert Rix can ever duly appraise; nor indeed can they. The words Of this book are his, but the influence and charm Of another is here also: the spirit of Alice Rix breathes through its pages as a presence of light and beauty and joy.

Excerpt from Occasional Sermons and Addresses A number of the discourses contained in this volume have been previously in print. In publishing them with others the author has yielded to the request of friends, in whose judgment he has entire confidence. In this more permanent form it is hoped they may subserve the interests of education and true religion. The titles and the occasions on which they were deliv ered will sufficiently indicate their character. The author regrets that the pressure of public duties has not permitted him to give to these pages that thorough revision which would render the volume more worthy the attention of those who take an interest in these.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Speeches, Addresses, and Occasional Sermons, Vol. 1 of 3 I have collected in these volumes several Speeches, Addresses and occasional Sermons, which I have delivered at various times during the last seven years. Most of them were prepared for some special emergency: only two papers, that on "The Relation of Jesus to his Age and the Ages," and that on "Immortal Life," were written without reference to some such emergency. All of them have been printed before, excepting the sermon "Of General Taylor," and the address on "The American Scholar;" some have been several times reprinted. I do not know that they are worthy of republication in this permanent form, but the leading ideas of these volumes are very dear to me, and are sure to live as long as the human race shall continue. So I have published a small edition, hoping that the truths which I know are contained in these pages will do a service long after the writer, and the-occasion of their utterance, have passed off and been forgot. I offer them to whom they may concern. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
