A MEMOIR. With two Portraits. Crown
Svo, gilt top, $1.50.

"The subject of this memoir was a Unitarian minister, the representative of a class of which there are few left. He lived in every decade of the nineteenth century; that is to say, his life covers the whole period of Unitarian development in this country. . . This memoir will be of interest, not only to Dr. Morison's numerous friends, but as throwing many side-lights upon the whole period of our denominational history."-The Unitarian, Boston.

Shortly before his death Dr. Clarke gathered these papers for the purpose of publication in a volume. Some of them have appeared in periodicals, others have never been printed. Their publication in permanent form has been urged by persons who had read or heard them; and those who are acquainted with Dr. Clarke's books need no assurance that these papers are of wide and lasting interest, that they are marked by freshness of thought, breadth of outlook, wealth of information, and rare sweetness of spirit.
