Excerpt from The Romance of Evolution and Its Relation to Religion Newport, R. I., ten years at Hartford, Conn., and four years at Sharon, Mass. In 1904 he built a house at Greenfield, Mass., where he made his home with his daughter and her fam ily until his death on February 16, 1910. Mr. Kimball was a man of a wide range of reading, thorough, exact and untiring. He was sometimes truer to his convictions than to his convenience and preferred the approval of his own conscience to the applause of the multi tude. He was accustomed to speak his mind with great freedom not only upon the philo sophical and religious beliefs which he cher ished, but also upon the vexing social problems of his generation. He was upright and down right, courageous and persistent. He was also remarkably productive, for in spite of his busy life of study and of pastoral service he wrote unceasingly upon the subjects and in behalf of the causes which enlisted his enthusiasm. A graphic article of his appeared in the Spring field Republican on the day before his death, and another in the Christian Register on the day after his death.

Excerpt from The Romance of Evolution and Its Relation to Religion The writer of these essays was a vigorous thinker and a man of conspicuous gifts of public speech. Through his love for natural beauty he was early led into scientific research and he was early led into scientific research and he made himself one of the most convincing of the interpreters of the philosophy of evolution. He combined a scientific habit of mind with a deep interest in spiritual realities. He was independent in judgment, sincere in utterance and vivid and picturesque in his capacity to translate truth into terms of life. John C. Kimball was born at Ipswich, Mass., on the 23d of May, 1832. He graduated at Amherst College in 1854 and after teaching for several years entered the Harvard Divinity School where he graduated in 1859. From 1860 to 1871 he was the minister of the First Parish Church in Beverly, Mass., though during two of these years he served as chaplain of the Eighth Massachusetts Volunteers.

Excerpt from Evolution and Religion I AM afraid I shall lay myself open to the charge of having adopted a very ambitious title for this book but the size alone is sufficient to convince any one that it is not intended to cover the extensive fields of Evolution and Religion. My object is not to teach evolution, far less theology; but, by placing some of the leading facts of each subject side by side, to call attention to their natural connection. Through the labours of Wolff, Lamarck, and especially Darwin, belief in creation has given place to the idea of gradual development in the world of life; as had previously been the case in regard to the inorganic world. Since the publication of Darwin's Origin of Species, the theory of evolution has invaded every department of thought and enquiry, and has revolutionized men's views upon many of the most important subjects. Scientifically, creation is a word now almost without meaning. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Religious Aspect of Evolution I felt it to be my only course not to reject the truth because it was proclaimed by some who turned it to an irreligious use, but to ao cept it wherever it might lead. And to turn it to a better use I let it be known that while I thought there was truth, I believed there was error in the common expositions of evo lution, and that the work of the coming age must be to separate the truth from the error, when it would be found, I was sure, that this, like every other part of God's work, would illustrate his existence and his wisdom.
