Excerpt from Miracles in the Slums: Or Thrilling Stories of Those Rescued From the Cesspools of Iniquity, and Touching Incidents in the Lives of the Unfortunate
My primary object in setting forth these pages is the honor of God by showing positively, and with emphasis, the power of Christ to save the lowest of the low, to renew the most ruined and wrecked lives, and revive and restore the most blasted hopes.
Second, to reach the unreached, unwashed, and unchurched, and lead them to the Christ who has wrought such marvelous transformation in the lives of those whose history is given here.

Excerpt from Miracles in the Slums: Or Thrilling Stories of Those Rescued From the Cesspools of Iniquity, and Touching Incidents in the Lives of the Unfortunate
As the time has come to send forth this book to the reading public, I have a very keen sense of the fact that it but faintly portrays the awful situation as found in our great centers of population. While some of our statements will be regarded by many as extravagant, and our word-pictures as overdrawn, yet as I think of it now, I have a deep and growing conviction that in our setting forth these pages we have not approximated a fair description of the real state of things as they exist to-day.
There arc some things that can not be exaggerated. No newspaper reporter has ever yet been able in his description to overdraw a real cyclone, and if you have ever been in one, you are quite ready to agree with me. The slime, squalor, and crime of our slimiest slums baffles all power of description; in fact, we would not, if we could, attempt to describe much that we have found of unnameable sin, shame, and crime.
For more than a quarter of a century I have at times been greatly burdened for the neglected, fallen, and poverty-stricken of this world.
