Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoir of Rev. Seth Barnes Br. Bisbee: Borne across half the continent, your invitation to write something to appear in the Memoir of Rev. Seth Barnes reaches me at my home near the Atlantic shore. In accordance with that, and with my own feelings, I pen these lines. I seem to see our brother now as I so often saw him at his home on the banks of the Mississippi. For nearly two years my residence was at Minneapolis, just over the river. At the gateway of his yard, near the river, I first looked on his genial face, and heard his cordial words, and felt the warm grasp of his hand. On the same spot we bade each other good-by, cheered by the hope that we should meet again on earth. God willed otherwise. Our brother was called away from life to the evergreen hills of heaven. Our next meeting will be on the farther bank of the river that flows silently between time and eternity. From the first I was strongly drawn to him. Soon I learned to love him as a father. We met often. It was good to be with him. No breath of discord ever rippled the surface of our mutual affection. He was a safe adviser and an unfailing friend. My Sunday service most of the time was in the afternoon. This gave me the opportunity of attending his service, and worshiping with him and his people in the morning. It was one of the best hours of the week to me when I walked to his beautiful church, and there listened to his clear, practical and earnest enforcement of the truths of heaven. There were no counterfeit utterances in his prayer or sermon. Every thought bore the golden impress of sincerity, and was coined in the mint of his own Christian experience. His sermons always did me good; and the condition of his parish, full in numbers and fervent in devotion, was ample evidence that they were abundantly helpful to others.
