Brief History of William Miller, A / Compilation / (HB/1915-1915/B/USED)

"The name of William Miller, of Low Hampton, N.Y., is too well known to require an extended introduction; but, while well know, few men have been more diversely regarded than he. Those who have only heard his name associated with all that is hateful in fanaticism, have necessarily formed opinions respecting him anything but complimentary to his intelligence and sanity; but those who knew him better, esteemed him as of more than ordinary mental power, —a cool, sagacious, and honest reasoner, an humble and devout Christian, a kind and affectionate friend, and a man of great moral and social worth. That the impartial reader may be able to form a just estimate of one who has occupied so conspicuous a position before the public, the following pages are compiled.
