Sinopsis
Excerpt from Life and Letters of Rev. George Boardman Taylor, D. D
It is difficult to estimate the value of such a life. Our Master does not measure our work, but weighs it. Foundation laying is always slow and inconspicuous. Who can tell how much, in Italian thought, the swing of the pendulum from Romanism towards Atheism has been retarded by such a life as Dr. Taylor's, and how far it is due to his labors that. We find the minds of the Italians that throng to our shores hospitable to Protestant ideas! Success and suffering are vitally interrelated. If you suffer without succeeding, it is that others may succeed after you; if you succeed without suffering, it is because others suffered before you.

Excerpt from Life and Letters of Rev. George Boardman Taylor, D. D
About thirty years ago I spent a winter in Rome and for the first time met the Rev. Dr. George B. Taylor. I was sick in a strange city, and he visited me. I began then to realize how rich is the incidental ministry which the foreign missionary can perform to his own countrymen, whom he chances to find in need and pain, like ships that pass in the night. From that time his life touched mine at different points, and I ever learned more deeply to admire his strenuous and abstemious nature. There could hardly be a more perfect blending of saint, scholar and gentleman. I used to attend his Sunday services, and the vision of his pale but glowing features and his delicate frame, protected by a gray shawl against the tomb-like chilliness of the locale where his disciples met, will never fade away from my remembrance.
When the English troops made their famous charge up Spion Kop, attaining its summit only to be swept down by the murderous cross-fire of the Boers, they had left Major Ross in camp weak and unable to walk. But we are told that rumors of the desperate conflict in which his regiment was involved must have reached the hospital tent in which the sick man lay, for at three o'clock that afternoon the orderly reported that his bed was empty.
