Excerpt from Memoir of John Griscom, LL. D: Late Professor of Chemistry and Natural Philosophy, With an Account of the New York High School, Society for the Prevention of Pauperism, the House of Refuge; And Other Institutions The preparation of a Memoir by one who bears such relations to its subject as are sustained in the present instance, is felt to be a work of no little delicacy. While on one hand affection prompts to the display of much that is profoundly grateful to the memory, and is sug gestive of a desire that others might participate in the enjoyment of it, other sentiments dictate its reservation. Of such nature is much of the familiar correspondence, which presents various special personal characteristics, and is often marked with much fulness and freedom of expression on many subjects, of both private and public interest. The presentation of such, on the printed page, it was feared might be deemed obtrusive of private matters.
