Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Andrew P. Peabody, D.D., LL. D : A Memoir Andrew Preston Peabody was born in Beverly, Massachusetts, March 19, 1811, and his birthplace is marked by a substantial brick edifice, on which are inscribed the words "Peabody Building." He was a descendant of Lieutenant Francis Peabody of St. Albans, England, who came to this country in the ship "Planter" in 1635, and from whom George Peabody the philanthropist was also descended. His father was a native of Middleton, and intended to prepare himself for the ministry; but his health failed, and he became a teacher, and for many years kept the public school in Beverly. His mother, who was a woman of singular sweetness, belonged to a highly esteemed family in Essex County, being a sister of Hon. Robert Rantoul, Sr., of Beverly. The father died when the child was very young; and among his last words charged his wife that she would carry out the wish which he had always cherished, that their only son might be educated for the profession which he had chosen for himself, but had been obliged to abandon. This solemn injunction, being often repeated in presence of the lad, made a lasting impression on his mind; and after he grew up, he said that the truths of religion which he cherished were inseparable in his thought from a Christian mother´s teaching and from the dying benediction of a sainted father.
