Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sermon, in Two Parts, Delivered on the Sabbath, June 28, 1856, Vol. 1 of 2: The Close of the Fiftieth Year Fellow Christians and Friends of this First Church and Parish in Hingham: Let us remember that we are descendants and successors in the time honored inheritance of those who first founded this parish, formed this church, and erected this ancient house of worship. Not to boast would we mention this, but from the memory of the past to be more deeply impressed in our own hearts with a sense of obligation and of sacred duty to the future. A trust of great responsibleness is committed to us. This trust, the most precious of all our bequests, those around us rising into life and those who shall live after us may justly expect to be held, and transmitted to them unimpaired. On this occasion a reminiscence of a few occurrences seems to be pertinent. It is now two hundred and twenty-one years since this town was incorporated. At the time when this was incorporated, the towns in the colony, generally, if not without exception, were by law constituted parishes or religious societies. This town was incorporated in July and this church was formed the next September. The first minister of the town was Rev. Peter Hobart. Our history does not give the precise time of his ordination.
