The Upper Room
Excerpt from The Upper Room
When some one's biography is written who has wrought great deeds and has filled the eye of the world, various discoveries are made, and not the least interesting has often been the number of his private friends and the closeness of their intimacy. People had supposed that they could have mentioned every person whom he trusted and who influenced him, because they could run over the names joined with his in public affairs and heard from his lips.
