DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Recollections of George Butler In visiting some great picture gallery, and passing along amidst portraits innumerable of great men - of kings, statesmen, discoverers, authors, or poets - I have sometimes been attracted above all by a portrait without a name, or without the interest attaching it of any recorded great exploit, but which nevertheless interests for its own sake. Something looks forth from those eyes - something of purity, of sincerity, of goodness - which draws the beholder to go back again and again to that portrait, and which gives it a lasting place in the memory long after many other likenesses of earth's heroes are more or less forgotten.
