Philochristus : Memoirs of a Disciple of the Lord

One of three anonymously published theological "romances" by Edwin A. Abbott (1838-1926) best-known for his 1884 novella "Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions". Forasmuch as almost all those disciples who with me saw the Lord Jesus in the flesh, are now fallen asleep, and I myself am well stricken in years and daily expect the summons of the Lord; it hath therefore seemed good to me to bequeath unto you some memorial of Christ in writing; which, instead of my voice, shall testify to you of him for ever.
