Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Writings of Governor Charles Henry Hardin This book is prepared from a sense of duty and love for its subject. Charles H. Hardin. His long, successful and useful life on earth is ended; his birth into the eternal life begun. We cannot penetrate beyond the veil that hides him from our View, but on the inner Spirit shines a light from heaven, revealing the glories of that bright realm where now he has his home. This light comes to us in the words of our blessed Savior, Because I live, ye shall live also His words, then, which are Spirit and life, assure us that our dear departed one is not dead, but alive with Him. But there remains a duty for us to discharge, to perpetuate his memory; to chronicle some Of the events of his long, laborious life. Many friends request a memorial to be prepared, and it is right to record in a book, a life spent in the service of his country. Thomas Carlyle thus speaks: The articulate, audible voice of the Past, when the body and material substance of it has altogether vanished like a dream, lies as in magic preserva tion, in the pages of books.
