Excerpt from A Brief Memoir of Elizabeth Fry On the page of divine inspiration is inscribed the sacred decree, "The righteous Shall be in everlasting remembrance." This has, doubtless, a special reference to that witness which is in heaven - that record upon high - by which the actions of the just are registered in the "Book of Life: " yet it also indicates that the bright course of those faithful servants of God and benefactors of mankind, who "rest from their labours," and whose "works do follow them," is designed to serve as an ensign throughout succeeding generations; exhibiting, by the force of a holy example, the blessedness and the duty of treading in that pathway of Christian dedication, in which they sought to follow Him who "went about doing good," and who "came to seek and to save that which was lost."
