Pages : 466
Book Description
Excerpt from Martyrdom in Missouri, Vol. 1: A History of Religious Proscription, the Seizure of Churches, and the Persecution of Ministers of the Gospel, in the State of Missouri; During the Late Civil War, and Under the 'Test Oath' of the New Constitution "We are making history," was the convenient and popular boast of certain politico-religious fanatics during the late civil war, and for a few years subsequent to its close. It will not be considered impertinent, now that the "piping times of peace" have come, and men are permitted to look back upon the cooled passions and crystallized events of that dreadful period with somewhat of calm philosophy, if the fact should be announced that "we are writing history." It is one thing to make the history, it is quite another thing to write it. If others could afford to "make history," and, then, in popular cant and with prurient vanity, boast of it, we can well afford to write it up for them. And if our part of the task be fairly, candidly and correctly done, they will have little reason to complain if they appear before the world and go down to posterity in the light of the history they have made, and with their true character brought out by the shadows they have thrown forward upon the future. History is valuable, not merely as a catalogue of events and an inventory of things, but for the principles involved and the lessons taught. The events herein narrated are notorious, the principles involved are vital, and the lessons important. Missouri will ever be conspicuous in the annals of history as the only State in the American Union to inaugurate and authorize a formal opposition to Christianity, as an institution, and legalize the persecution of ministers of the gospel, as a class. The fact will not be denied, and the history furnishes the saddest, wisest lessons. Ministers of the gospel have been robbed, arrested, imprisoned, and even murdered, for no other cause than that they were ministers of the gospel. They have been indicted by grand juries, arrested and imprisoned with common felons, mobbed and put to death for no other cause than that of preaching the gospel without taking the "Test Oath" of the New Constitution.

Book Description
Excerpt from Martyrdom in Missouri, Vol. 2: A History of Religious Proscription, the Seizure of Churches, and the Persecution of Ministers of the Gospel, in the State of Missouri During the Late Civil War, and Under the Test Oath of the New Constitution No human work is perfect; no human judgment infallible. No collation of historical facts can he abstractly accurate, for both their accuracy and value will he measured from each man's point of observation, and determined by each man's interest in the principles involved and the lessons taught. This work - now complete, but not perfect - is submitted to the ordeal of human criticism and consecrated to the high and holy uses for which it was undertaken. It will pass on, with the multitude of other historical works, to fulfill its mission in the world, and be assigned only the place among similar productions which its true merit demands. When the great Athenian artist, Zeuxis, was rallied by the young and dashing artists of bis day because he spent so much time on his pictures, he replied, "Why should I be sparing of time when I paint for eternity?" It is a noble passion which looks through the toils, privations and sufferings of the present to the veneration and homage of future ages. Genius paints for succeeding generations, and can only be measured and appreciated by the lapse of centuries.
