Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Correct View of That Part of the United States: Which Lies West of the Allegany Mountains, With Regard to Religion and Morals Gentlemen, The report which I have at this time the pleasure of transmitting to you, will probably be found to differ from the ordinary mode on such occasions I have omitted to give you the transactions of each day in detail, because the information I have to communicate, thus presented. it would be impossible for any other person so to arrange, as to give the Society a just conception of the state of the churches, religion and morals in the States and Territories west of the Allegeny Mountains. A correct view of the state of religious affairs, in that region, is of the utmost importance; for the knowledge which this part of the country at present possesses, on this subject, is very limited and partial. Unless a proper representation of the case be made, we have no reason to expect that Christians will feel the necessity of contributing with tint liberality, which will enable. Missionary Societies to support missionaries in the western country; nor ministers of the Gospel feel it their duly, personally to engage in them. These reasons are my apology for departing from the ordinary mode of communication. As it respects my labors as a missionary, besides the services of the Sabbath. I preached during the week, as frequently as the people could be convened, and other circumstances would admit. Some weeks three times, other weeks not more than once or twice; and it has happened also, that I have had on service except on the Sabbath. Every State has its natural as well as civil divisions. The situation of the civil, such as counties and townships, it is not expected will be known by persons residing out of the State; while its natural divisions arc known by all who are conversant with Geography.
