Excerpt from Life and Remains of the Late Rev. William Hamilton, D. D., Minister of Strathblane, Vol. 1 of 2 To you, especially of my father's former parishioners, who aided and encouraged him amidst his labours by your sympathies, your zealous co-operation, and your prayers, I must, in taking leave, express my feeling of deep and personal obligation. May all your kindness and your love towards him return sevenfold into your own bosom! Animated by the same blessed hope, and considering the end of his conversation, -jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and to-day, and for ever, may you all at last inherit the same joy!
