Excerpt from Memoir of William David Stuart: With Copious Extracts From His Diary and Letters, Together With an Appendix In the preparation of this volume, my object has been, not so much to write a Memoir, as to make such a selection from William's papers as would clearly illustrate his life and character. I regret that the work has not fallen into abler hands, but it was the wish of the friends immediately interested that it should be prepared by some one intimately associated with the deceased, and I have yielded my wishes to theirs. His Diary - from which copious extracts are given - was kept sacredly between God and his own soul, while on the portions of his Letters to M. now printed other eyes than hers were never expected to look, and neither would have been surrendered for publication had not their possessor believed that good would be accomplished by their perusal.
