Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Biography of Rev. Alfred J. Fox, M. D., Evangelical Lutheran Minister of the Tennessee Synod, and Physician
HE purpose of this biography is to rescue and preserve from oblivion the life and character' of one whose memory deserves to be guarded with affectionate interest. Its responsibility belongs to the author and the friends who desired its publication. No pains nor expense have been spared to make it worthy of the life it endeavors to picture with no touches of fancy, but with truthful expressions. Its typography, portrait, and general appearance speak for themselves. Every available source has been sought to gather any facts that might throw light upon the history of one whose noblest deeds, perhaps, have been forgotten. The unwritten history of this useful life would be transcend ently more interesting than the present work, could it be presented in its stead.
The author gratefully acknowledges his indebtedness to kind friends who have aided him in collecting the necessary material, and presents this book to a generous public with the Sincere hope that it may accomplish good, and that the blessing of the Lord God of our fathers may go with it.
