AbstractStory of Justus Falckner, the younger brother of Daniel Falckner. How he came here with his brother upon his return to America, and at first withdrew from the world and lived as a recluse or hermit in a sheltered dell on the Wissahickon, passing his time in prayer, study and silent contemplation; then consented to be ordained to the ministry, after which he at once assumed charge of the scattered Lutherans in the adjoining colonies. Later, as a missionary, he labored for twenty years in his extended field, reaching from Manhattan to Albany, and East New Jersey to Long Island, until at last he succumbed a martyr to his zeal and duty. Falckner, Justus, 1672-1723
