Of the Methodist Episcopal Church of America; with an account of his
Father, the REV. G. G. COOKMAN.
By the Rev. H. B. RIDGAWAY, D.D.
"Alfred Cookman was a burning and a shining light. His moral and
spiritual power was eminent, and lent an influence to his mental
gifts, which clothed them, with remarkable efficiency. Wherever
he went he made himself felt as an able and efficient minister
of the divine truth, and turned many to righteousness. His zeal,
which burned within him as an intense passion, consumed him,
and brought him to a premature grave. By this memoir he still
speaks, and must speak impressively to all readers."--_British
Quarterly Review._
