The Retrospect; Or, Review of Providential Mercies

Excerpt from The Retrospect: Or, Review of Providential Mercies; With Anecdotes of Various Characters

Since the first edition of this little work, the writer has often been rebuked for not extending his narratives of others, and has as often been requested to communicate more circumstances connected with himself. To these rebukes and solicitations he continued to turn a deaf ear, from what he now believes to be mistaken motives. While lately doubting these motives, he cast his eyes on the title page, and read, "The Retrospect; or, Review of Providential Mercies, &c." and his mind was considerably affected. Yes, he said, these pages are a retrospective glance at a few events which marked a limited portion of my days.
