Excerpt from Letters of George Long Her statement proved true and the companion volume is now in my hands through the kindness of Mrs. Emma Breckinridge, of Grove Hill, Botetourt County, Virginia. Mrs. Breckinridge is a sister of Mr. John Gilmer and a daughter of Peachy Gilmer, the eld est brother of the subject of this sketch. This second volume is even more invaluable than the first as it contains all of Gilmer's own letters to Mr. Jefferson, etc., and also throws many valuable side lights upon the internal history of Virginia for the period from 1815 to 1825.

Excerpt from Letters of George Long In March of 1925 one hundred years will have passed since the doors of the University of Virginia were thrown open for the reception of students. The men of the University, wherever they live, are everywhere awaking to the rapid approach of the momentous anniversary, and historical interest is now alert to discover and preserve every last hidden and unpublished record surviving from the generation of our grandfathers. With the passing of our generation the last thread of direct historical tradition from the times of Jefferson will have been severed forever, and historians of the University will strive with the aid of the sources transmitted to them to attain a scientific knowledge of those determining events which explain the origin and early history of the institution, and to portray the story of its life in its outer course and inner connection. Ours is the sacred duty to cherish the bond that is to bind our age with that of our children and of our children's children, recording before it is too late the precious relics of a passing tradition, and remembering too that the interest which attaches to great events and far-reaching historical and spiritual influences communicates itself even to matters and incidents of otherwise trivial importance, and justifies us in rescuing from oblivion and recording each newly discovered episode in the life of the far-away time to be read and learned with lively curiosity by those who shall succeed to the heritage of their fathers. There are two sources of knowledge from which the historian may draw when seeking to reconstruct the life of a past era: the one, the objective monuments and written records of the time; the other, the ever sparser growing personal recollections of those who were contemporaries and actors in the spiritual drama. The historical recollections of the individual are mainly confined to those events with which he was personally acquainted.

Excerpt from Letters of George Wyndham, 1877-1913, Vol. 1 Although a year has passed since George Wyndham died, his nearest relations and friends cannot yet realize their loss. There are men who give so much, who so completely satisfy the needs of others that they do not only influence the life of these others but become a part of it. Such men do not die to their friends. Conscious thought may realize their absence, but sub-conscious thought remains pervaded by their sympathy and continues as before to share with them every impression of beauty, action, or endeavour. It is not time but this continuity of sympathy that blunts the sting of separation. The preparation of these volumes has so fostered and maintained the sense of intimacy and companionship, that it is hoped that the reading of them may do the same for those for whom they have been prepared. George Wyndham's letters are not studied composi tions, and for that reason they reflect his mind more truly than do his other writings, either in prose or verse. They supply an almost complete record of his every mood, his interests, his aspirations and his ideals. Living, he wished to share each impression of his full life with his friends his letters enable us to share them still.
