Excerpt from The Life and Work of William Pryor Letchworth: Student and Minister of Public Benevolence Keep its influence from being lost. If the story is not found to have an interest of no common degree it will be because it is not rightly told. In devoting the greater part of his mature life to benevolent work (performed as an un paid official of the State of New York, and wholly at his own cost), Mr. Letchworth was obedient, it is plain, to hereditary promptings, from an ancestry which had been spiritually cul tured for two centuries by the humane Christ ianity of the Society of Friends. The family was of ancient English stock, so ancient that its origin, if the tracing were possible, would most likely be found in Saxon times. The name, Letchworth, is that of a parish and village in the hundred of Broadwater, county of Hertford, England, two miles from the town of Hitchin and northwestward from London about thirty three miles. It seems obviously a Saxon name, and Whether the parish received it from the family or the family from the parish is an unde termined question which calls for no discussion.
