The following memoir ought earlier to have been presented to the public. But it has not been in my power. It was not till several months after Miss Lyon sdecease that I reluctantly consented to take charge of its compilation. I say reluctantly, not because I thought it an unimportant matter to bring out the private history of such a woman, but because my hands were already too full, and my health too poor. The result was, that before much progress had been made in the work, I sailed for Europe; not, however, until I had requested the trustees of the seminary to put the work into other hands. But on my return I found it still upon me, and I have urged it forward as rapidly as the pressure of other duties has permitted. When I consented to undertake this work, at the request of the trustees, I had the hope and the prospect of acting merely as the arranger of materials prepared by others.
