Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Memorial of the Rev. Robert Collyer, D.D., Litt; D : Late Minister of the Unitarian Church of the Messiah, New York City Robert Collyer, through more than thirty-three years the honored minister of the Church of the Messiah in New York, the revered father in the spirit of two full generations of its worshipers, and the beloved friend of a host of men and women in this country and in England, passed away on November 30, 1912, in the eighty-ninth year of his age. On his return to his home in September, after the summer vacation season in Gloucester, Dr. Collyer seemed to be in that unvarying condition of good health and abounding vitality which, had long been the wonder of all those who knew him. He showed his usual keen interest in the affairs of the church, took his accustomed part in the Sunday services, and went about the daily routine which, he had followed year in and year out for well-nigh half a century. Suddenly, on the first day of November, he was stricken. After the initial collapse, he seemed to rally for a little time, but the indications of recovery were deceptive. On Wednesday, November 6th, he took to his bed, and slowly, by almost imperceptible degrees from day to day, faded away. At last, close to midnight on Saturday, the 30th, he died. No lines of pain were on his quiet face, no slightest trace of struggle disturbed his last hours of mortal slumber. He "fell on sleep" as sweetly and gently as a tired child at the end of a long and happy day. Like Enoch of old time, he simply "was not, for God took him."
