Excerpt from Henry Cary Shuttleworth: A Memoir
This book is the work of several hands and I have done little more than collect and arrange the material supplied by the kindness of others. Each period of Mr. Shuttleworth's life, and each department of his work, has been described by some friend who had special opportunities of close observation. As to the leading qualities of his moral and intellectual nature, it is interesting to note the concurrence of testimony from so many witnesses writing in complete independence of each other. The result of this combined handiwork does not profess to be more than a sketch; but even a sketch, if it has caught the characteristic features of its subject, may claim pardon for its roughnesses and imperfections.
The special thanks of those who read this Memoir are due to the Rev. Dr. Wace.
