Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memorials of Samuel Gurney
IN offering to the world a memorial, however slight, of one whose name is publicly known and honoured, an Editor should be less anxious for credit to himself in the performance of the task, than that the subject may not suffer by biographical handling.
It is, therefore, not without some sense of the incompleteness of this little volume as a sketch, and its failure as an entire picture, of Samuel Gurney, that the following pages are sent forth.
