Excerpt from Wilbur Fisk
Then they were men of extraordinary spiritual ity and devotion, whose every-day life was a denial of the world, the flesh, and the devil. To forsake home and kindred and all worldly ambitions and selfish modes of living, to be always in the saddle, always on the march like soldiers, to go amongst strangers on religious errands which would bring them into collision with the settled convictions of all New England, to be counted and to be the off scouring of all things for Christ's sake, was a spiritual discipline compared with which those of Jesuit and Trappist were slight and ineffectual. And they did all that on an allowance of sixty dollars a year, subject to every appeal which the greater needs of some men always make to gen erous minds. And all this was done, not in a spirit of submission, but of exultation that they were permitted to win souls from sin to holiness at any possible expense of efiort and self-sacrifice. Nobody could accuse them of worldly and secular motives in their ministry of love.
