Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of the First Church and Parish in Dedham: In Three Discourses, Delivered on Occasion of the Completion, November 18, 1838, of the Second Century Since the Gathering of Said Church The first of these Discourses was delivered on the day of the Annual Thanksgiving, Nov.29, 1838, and the other two on the Sunday following. The Church was gathered the 8th of Nov.1638. This, allowing for difference of style (the rule requiring ten days to be added to a date occuring in the seventeenth century, and eleven days to one occuring in the eighteenth, in order to convert Old Style into New,) gives the 18th of Nov. as the two hundredth anniversary of that event. The state of the writers health did not admit of its commemoration by this Church at that time. The difference, however, is only of a few days. Mr. Dexters Centennial was not delivered till fifteen days after the time. In my own case I should have selected the exact day, it falling this year on Sunday, but that being out of the question for the reason just stated, the best I could do was to make my Discourses the first offering to my people, on resuming my labors among them after some months absence. In regard to my facts I have spared no labor to secure the greatest accuracy. My authorities, when I have not named them, have been, for the most part, the Proprietors and Town Records, and those of the Church and Parish. I have not thought it necessary to encumber my pages with minute references to these Records, more especially as the date of the transaction will, in general, be a sufficient guide to any who may be disposed to consult the originals.
