BEQUEATHED BY HIM TO THE LIBRARY OF PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY Section 30W^ / A Treasure of Hymns Brief Biographies of One Hundred and Twenty Leading Hymn-Writers with Their Best Hymns By ^y AMOS R. WELLS BOSTON AND CHICAGO UNITED SOCIETY OF CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR Copyrighted, 19 14, by the United Society of Christian Endeavor Preface. FOR ten years it has been my pleasure to write articles on the leading hymns and hymn- writers for The Christian Endeavor Worlds one a month. These hymns were suggested as memory hymns for the Christian Endeavor societies, the hymns to be sung from memory in the meetings, and the facts regarding their writers to be stated to the young people. The considerable amount of hymn lore thus collected is here presented in per- manent form for the use of pastors, church workers, young people's societies, and all lovers of hymns. No claim is made to originality ; only a few of these chapters consist of material here presented for the first time ; most of the book is collected from a large number of volumes. The usefulness of the book will spring from the wide range of hymn literature which has been examined, the most inter- esting and inspiring facts being collated for this volume.
