Book Description
Excerpt from Thomas Chalmers, D.D., LL. D HE Memoirs of Dr. Chalmers by his son-in-law, the Rev. Dr. Hanna, were published in four volumes in the year 1849. A volume of correspondence followed. The work is one of great interest and perma nent value for all who wish to know what Chalmers was and to understand the history of his time. We have, as a matter of course, taken it as our chief guide and authority. A biographical [mal/us on Chalmers by the late Mr. James Dodds is a vigorous eulogium. There is also an excellent and very appreciative sketch of his character istics in a volume on the Christian Life by Dr. Peter Bayne, published more than twenty years ago. From such sources, with his voluminous writings, and the vivid reminiscences of him which yet survive, there is no lack of materials for our little book. The difficulty rather lies.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Selection From the Correspondence of the Late Thomas Chalmers, D.D. LL. D [So great an interest has been expressed in Dr. Chalmers's Correspondence with Mr. James Anderson and Mr. Thomas Smith, that we commence this volume by completing that Correspondence. Dr. Chalmers's a answers to Mr. Anderson's last letters unfortunately have not been preserved, but these letters appeared to have merit enough of their own to warrant their insertion.] No. I. - Dr. Chalmers to Mr. James Anderson. Kilmany Manse. 22d February, 1812. My Dear Sir, - It grieves me to disappoint the hopes I had myself raised, but the truth is, that I overrated my strength when I last wrote you. I was very much fatigued on the night of my arrival, but expected to be quite fresh and active next day; instead of which I felt myself quite powerless and exhausted, and am still in a very useless state. I am too well aware of the effects of a Sunday's exertions upon me to think, in these circumstances, of attempting Dundee on Monday at all. I regret it the less, that I find you have every prospect of matters going on as they should do. Had I been in possession of the requisite strength, I meant to prepare myself for resisting the proposal of a Scottish Bible Society, in case it had been made by Dr. Nichol or others. Be strong, I beseech you, on this head. When I meet you I will go over the mystery of this society at greater length.
