Excerpt from Edward White: His Life and Work

Edward white, the subject of this biography, was a free-church minister in London during a period nearly coincident with the second half of the nineteenth century. In the early part of his metropolitan career he was kept to some extent in the background, in consequence of certain unpopular theological opinions which he had made public while in a provincial pastorate; but by his power ful evangelical preaching, his sterling Christian character, and his remarkable intellectual ability, he gradually won general and hearty recognition as one of the most eminent representatives of free-church principles. He was also chosen to occupy the most honoured positions in the Christian community with which he was ecclesiasti cally associated.

Of the long and useful life of Edward White some permanent record is needed, in order that those who have not had the advantage of personal acquaintance with him may be able to gain something like an adequate idea of the man: a man whose life-work has had a marked effect upon the general mode of thinking in relation to questions of supreme importance to humanity.
