Excerpt from The Life of Mrs. Sarah A. Lankford Palmer: Who for Sixty Years Was the Able Teacher of Entire Holiness There are three classes of biographers, - those who deify, those who defame, those who discriminate. Happily for the Church, the author of this volume belongs to the third and nobler class. His eminence as a scholar, his love of truth, and his long and personal acquaintance with the Christian lady whose biography he has written, qualify him in an eminent sense to give to the Church and the world a discriminating portraiture of one of the sweetest, gentlest, purest, human souls. His splendid life of Dr. Durbin, that prince of preachers, prepared the public to expect from his pen a biography in every sense worthy the astute intelligence of our age, and the sincere desire to be thoroughly informed on the great subject of personal holiness. It was my happiness to enjoy the Christian friendship of those two eminent sisters in Christ, - Mrs. Dr. Phoebe Palmer and Mrs. Sarah A. Lankford Palmer. What Mary and Martha, the blessed sisters of Bethany, were in early Christian history, these cherished sisters of New York are to be recalled with gratitude and delight.
