Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life and Work of Philip Pearsall Carpenter: Chiefly Derived From His Letters When I informed Dr. Martineau of my intention to prepare a Memoir of my brother, whom he had known from a child, he wrote I am truly glad that you propose to draw some more durable portrait of your dear brother Philip, than the slight sketches which have hitherto appeared.
