Excerpt from The Master's Slave, Elijah John Fisher: A BiographyThe study of the past, one element of history, is a guide in forecasting the future. On the one hand it is a caution, and on the other an inspiration. History is the truest biography, or biography is the truest history. The lives of men filling sacred or ecclesiastical posi tions have been the richest heritage of historians. Secular and sacred history would be void of much of its luster and potentiality, if it did not give the achieve ments of Luther, Calvin, Chrysostom, Wesley, Spur geon, and many other illustrious church characters.Our race group and our churches must tarry here long enough to learn the value of this subject and the importance of the biographer's pen. That it is mightier than the sword applies here with more force and aptness than elsewhere. Deeply stirred by this fact, the author of this volume presents to the world the biography of the lamented Rev. E. J. Fisher, D.
