Excerpt from Memoir of Lebaron Botsford, M. DIn presenting this memoir of Dr. Botsford to the public, the writer's aim has been to narrate the moulding circum stances which surrounded Dr. Botsford's childhood and youth, vividly to depict him as he walked among us for so many years - a physician, friend, and citizen - and partially to reveal the hidden motor-power of Christian principle which impelled the various professional, social, and benevolent activities of his life.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
