Excerpt from Present Day Theology: A Popular Discussion of Leading Doctrines, of the Christian Faith

Lewis French Stearns was born at Newburyport, Mass., on March 10, 1847.His fatlier was the Rev. Jonathan French Stearns, then pastor of the Federal Street Presbyterian Church in that ancient town. The maiden name of his mother was Anna S. Prentiss. He was the second of three children. The eldest, Seargent Prentiss Stearns, Consul-General at Montreal under President Arthur, is now living in that city, and his sister Annie is the wife of Dr. Austin Scott, President of Rutgers College, New Brunswick, N.J. He had good reason to rejoice in his parentage. It made him heir, along several lines, to the oldest and best religious life of New England. On his father"s side it allied him with a ministerial family noted through successive generations for admirable personal qualities, piety, and wide influence. Dr. O. W. Holmes, in his poem "The School-Boy," described it as

- a saintly race that never could,

From youth to age, be anything but good.

On his mother"s side he inherited some of the pleasantest, as well as worthiest, memories of Cape Cod and the Old Colony, and of Maine, in the eighteenth and first third of the nineteenth century. All the roots of his being ran back into the rich Puritan and Pilgrim soil of the seventeenth century.
