HENRY MARTYN OF PERSIA, by Jesse Page, Glasgow: Pickering & Inglis, Bothwell Street. Price, 2s. This is one of an interesting series of biographies of famous missionaries published by this firm. The story of Henry Martyn’s life should be read by all and especially by the young. Here was one endowed with intellectual gifts of the highest order with the prizes of scholarship lying at his feet but he renounced them all to become a messenger of the glad tidings of salvation to those who were in darkness. The zeal that burned within the frail tabernacle knew no rest until he breathed out his gentle spirit to God. The story of his life is well told in the biography before us and all who love good men will have no regrets in possessing themselves of a copy of this biography.
