Excerpt from Manuel Matamoros: His Life and Death; A Narrative of the Late Persecution of Christian in Spain; Compiled From Original Letters and Others Documents; With a Succint Sketch of the Gospel Work to the Present Time IN issuing a Third Edition of the Life of Manuel Matamoros, I desire to express my thankfulness, first, to the Giver of all good things, Who has permitted me to collect these truthful, though alas! Imperfect, details of the Life and Death of one who was His faithful soldier and servant, and secondly, to those Christian friends whose wishes have been carried out in the republication of this little book, as their prayers, encouragement and pecuniary assistance have rendered it possible. One of these friends, in speaking of the subject of this memoir, said to me, How closely he followed in the steps of his Divine Master. This is his best and truest eulogy. May it please our God to raise up many such in Spain and in Britain, and may He give His blessing to this repetition of a weak endeavour to promote His Glory. W. G.
