Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Lecture: Delivered in the Musical Fund Hall, on Tuesday Evening, November 26, 1860, in Answer to Archbishop Hughes on the Decline of Protestantism We are pleased to learn from the following correspondence, that the Rev. Dr. Berg has been solicited to answer the recent lecture of Bishop Hughes, on "the Decline of Protestantism," and will accede to the request at a very early day. From our talented townsman we shall expect a full and triumphant refutation of the fallacies, sophistries, and misrepresentations of the Romish priest. Rev. J. F. Berg, D.D. - Dear Sir: - Believing that the public mind ought to be disabused of the erroneous impressions which the recent lecture of Bishop Hughes of New York is adapted to convey in relation to the alleged "Decline of Protestantism," and knowing that your reading has made you familiar with this whole subject, we would respectfully suggest the propriety of your giving a public lecture on this subject at the Chinese Museum, or some other suitable place, and hereby respectfully request you to take this subject into consideration. (Signed,) Rev. J. Lansing Burrows, " David Malin, " John B. Dales, " John Chambers, " J. T. Ward, " A. A. Willits, Peter A. Browne, Esq. Thomas Wattson, A. J. Dumont, Wilfred Hall, Rev. Ezra Stiles Ely, D.D. " John Mc Dowell, D.D. " Charles D. Cooper, " John B. Hagany, " J. H. Kennard, Samuel Ash mead, Aaron A. Burtis, C. Collins, Jr. S. Sherrerd, And others. To Rev. J. Lansing Burrows, Rev. Drs. McDowell and Ely, and other clergymen, and Messrs. P. A. Browne, Thomas Wattson, and others: Respected Friends - So soon as the requisite arrangements can be made by the committee of gentlemen who have interested themselves in the matter to which your note of the 18th inst. relates, it will afford me pleasure to avail myself of the opportunity to show cause why those who are not ashamed of their Protestant profession, may reasonably demur to the strange assumptions of the gentleman who styles himself "The Most Rev. John Hughes, D.D., Archbishop of New York." Meanwhile, with due appreciation of your kindness, I am, yours truly, J. F. Berg.
