Excerpt from Sequel to Heinrich Stilling: Containing Stilling's Old Age, a Fragment, His Last Hours, A Supplement, by His Son-in-Law, And Letters to Stilling, From Lavater, Oberlin, Moser, the Baroness Von Krudener, Prince Charles of Hesse CasselThere are probably few who have perused Heinrich Stilling, and who have accompanied him from his childhood through the various stages of his remarkable and eventful life, to that period of it with which the second volume terminates, but would also gladly learn the sequel of his history, and the closing scenes of his earthly career. The Translator is happy to have it in his power to 'meet this desire in the following pages, so far as his German authorities enable him. He must, however, lament with his readers, the chasm which occurs from the period at which the venerable author dropped his pen, to the account of his decease, which no surviving member of the family considered himself competent to supply.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
