arly broke him down, in the long disappointment of the most cherished
hopes, and under the constant strain of what would have crushed any but
a giant in faith, lived a life which, if it taught no other lesson, was
yet well worth living to teach this--that Jesus Christ can and does give
His servants the victory over apparent non-success, after the most
vehement and long-sustained effort to secure success, and that this is
the greatest victory possible to renewed and sanctified human nature.

OF

THE LIFE OF GILMOUR.

'The story of James Gilmour will, if we mistake not, take a place of its
own in modern missionary literature. To a world devoted so much to
mercenary interests, and a Church too given to take things easily, the

'We are sure that this work will be read with the deepest interest by

'James Gilmour may appear to some as a hero, to others as a deluded

can fail to be fascinated by it.'--MANCHESTER GUARDIAN.
