L. LLOYD. "Sir George Williams (October 11, 1821-1905), was the founder of the YMCA. Williams was born on a farm in Dulverton, Somerset, England. As a young man, he described himself as a "careless, thoughtless, godless, swearing young fellow," but eventually became a devout Christian. He went to London and worked in a draper's shop. Appalled by the terrible conditions in London for young working men, he gathered a group of his fellow drapers together to create a place that wouldn't tempt young men into sin. That place was the YMCA. Williams was knighted in 1894 by Queen Victoria. After his death in 1905, he was commemorated by a stained-glass window in the nave of Westminster Abbey. Sir George Williams is buried in St. Paul's Cathedral." Wikipedia Very good blue cloth. Gilt titles. Some wear, soiling. 1902, 12mo, x, 312pp. The book is from her estate Dorothy A.
