Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memoir of Rev. Hezekiah Packard, D.D: Chiefly Autobiographical
Tue following pages are a monument of filial love and veneration to the memory of an honored parent, due alike to the best of fathers and one of the best of men. Sensible every day of the influence of his precepts and example on their whole lives, the surviving children wish, for their own satisfaction, for the benefit of their children and for the gratification of the many friends of their father, to record a more full and extended account, than could be given in an obituary notice, of his long and laborious life, of the promi nent traits of his character and of his views of life and duty.
