Memoirs of William Miller - Sylvester Bliss

which patriarchs and prophets sighed. Among the
public servants of the Most High, to them most
dear, our departed brother held a conspicuous
place. Years have passed since I enjoyed those
happy seasons with them, and swift-rolling rivers
and snow-capped hill-tops now lie between us. But,
in whatever light they may now regard the efforts
of him who sleeps in death, they then appreciated
them. For one, I have never since seen the time
when I was not thankful to God that I was counted
worthy to see the light, and rejoice in it. And my
prayer is that the torch of truth may illume our path
through time, and that we may at last have an
abundant entrance into the everlasting kingdom of
our Lord Jesus Christ.
