Excerpt from Memoir of George Dana Boardman: Late Missionary to Burmah, Containing Much Intelligence Relative to the Burman Mission
Including a sketch of Mr. Boardman's early history.
"It is a homage due to departed worth, whenever it rises to such a height as to render its possessor an object of general attention, to endeavor to rescue it from oblivion; that when it is removed from the observation of men, it may still live in their memory, and transmit through the shades of the sepulchre, some reflection, however faint, of its living lustre. By enlarging the cloud of witnesses by which we are encompassed, it is calculated to give a fresh impulse to their desire of imitation; and even the despair of reaching it is not without its use, by checking the levity, and correcting the pride and presumption of the human heart." Hall.
George Dana was the third son of the Rev. Sylvanus and Phebe Boardman. He was born in Livermore, State of Maine, Feb.8, 1801.His father was at that time pastor of the Baptist church in that place, but has since removed to New Sharon, in the same State, where, though now in the decline of life, he still performs with ability the duties of a faithful and affectionate minister of Christ.
As it is desirable to know something definite of the early years of one, whose memory is cherished, and whose name is held in high esteem by all who knew him, curiosity eagerly pries into the dawning and gradual development of that intellect, which, in the zenith of its strength, shed an influence at once so healthful and enlightening, on pagan darkness. From the scanty materials in our possession, we are able to discover the germ only, or at most the tender bud, while the flower, in its early freshness and beauty, was
"born to blush unseen,
And waste its sweetness on the desert air."
His venerable father, however, by the request of the Compiler, has furnished a few interesting incidents of the early years of George.
