Excerpt from Memoir of the Rev. E. Henderson, D.D., Ph.D: Including His Labours in Denmark, Iceland, Russia, Etc., Etc On such considerations, I have thought it right to accede to the suggestion of several friends, and to prepare the following pages, - the memorial, not of a name, but of a life, the life of one whose name is already inscribed in the archives of sacred and of secular literature. For a time I shrank from the responsibility of the task, and felt a desire that it might be entrusted to a compiler, who could more adequately do justice to the theme. On calling to mind, however, the comparative ease with which a relative could hope to glean the needful facts, and on ascertaining what would best meet my mother's wishes, I waived my scruples, and determined on attempting what I could not but esteem a labour of love.
