Excerpt from Memoir of the Life of the Rt. Rev. Richard Channing Moore, D.D: Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Virginia; Accompanied by a Selection From the Sermons of the Late Bishop

The following Biography of the late Bishop Moore, nu dertaken at the request of his family, has been written in the hours which could be spared amidst the multiplied duties of a large parochial cure. The labours of the biographer have been lightened by the kindness of the Bishop's children, in copy ing from his letter-book the most interesting parts of his cor respondence; and also in selecting and preparing for the press such of his sermons as they desired to have published. What ever may be the faults and deficiencies of the Memoir, it claims to furnish a faithful portraiture of the life and character of a venerable Father in the Church, which her children may contemplate with satisfaction and profit.
