Excerpt from The Life of William Pinkney Maryland has been far more favored by Divine Providence in her list of illustrious sons, and exciting historic incidents, than by the pen of skilful and enlightened historians or faithful and competent biographers. This is just matter of surprise, and good ground of impeachment. Next to the production of great men, who inscribe their names upon the monuments of their country's glory, is the energetic endeavor to hand down to after ages a true and faithful record of their deeds; and, what is of greater importance still (for deeds lose something of their power to fascinate and charm by the changing scenes of the present moment), of their intellectual qualities and moral virtues, which are the true picture of the man, and make up his claim to an immortality on the earth. It is no less the duty than the interest of the State to be jealous of the glory of the past. It is her treasury of wealth, from which she may draw largely not only for present exigencies but for future advancement. The most illustrious of the historians of Rome thus wrote: - "Nam saepe audivi, 0. Maxumum, P.Scipionem, praeterea civitatis nostrae praeclaros viros solitos ita dicere, cum majorum imagines intuerentur, vehementissume sibi animum ad virtutem accendi.

Excerpt from Life the Right Reverend William Pinkney D. D. LL. D: Fifth Bishop of Maryland The work of writing this Biography of the late Bishop pinkney very unexpectedly devolved upon me. Shortly after the Bishop's decease a number of the clergy and laity united in a letter to the late Rev. Dr. Meyer Lewin, requesting him to prepare such a Memoir. He consented to do so, but while engaged in gathering materials for the work, he was suddenly called to his rest before he had written a line or made a single note. Thereupon, I was solicited by the family and personal friends of the Bishop to undertake the work. Among those specially urgent that I should do so was the late Mr. W. W. Corcoran, whose affection for the person and devotion to the memory of Bishop pinkney were of the most ardent character. So emphatic were Mr. Corcoran's expressed wishes upon the subject, and so generous his proposals with regard to the expenses of the preparation and publication of the Life, that I felt constrained to subordinate all-other considera tions and assume the task. Owing to the pressure of other cares and duties, which I could not wholly neglect, the task is only now accomplished. Mr. Corcoran did not live to see the work completed and to carry out personally his intentions respecting its publication but in pursuance of his request and direction the entire expense of the preparation and publication of this work has been borne by his executors. As Bishop pinkney kept no diary except of strictly official acts, used no care in filing letters received, and made no copies of his own letters except in some rare instances, the difficulty of placing in consecutive order and with desired completeness the records and incidents of his life has been very great. Most consistently with his nature, it seems never to have occurred to him that occa sion would arise for the use of such materials in a Biography of himself. I have endeavored to give from those materials that I could secure a fair detail of the incidents and experiences of his life.
