Abstract

To understand the historical work of Dr. Good we shall have to consider certain facts of his early life and training. When he died at the age of seventy-three, he was a notable figure, not only in the Reformed Church in the United States, of which he was a member from childhood, but also among the Protestant Churches of America and Europe. Few men of any Church in this country were more widely known, and, in some respects, more highly esteemed than he. At the meeting of the Alliance of Reformed Churches throughout the World holding the Presbyterian System, at Pittsburgh, in 1921, Professor M. A. Curtiss of Scotland, in reporting for the Eastern Section, said: “I do not think that since the days of Dr. Schaff, and to go even further back, since the days of John Dury, the old apostle of Church Unity for Scotland, there has been a Presbyterian friend to our weak and threatened churches compared to Professor Good of Philadelphia.”
