Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Hand of God Recognized: A Discourse, Delivered on Sunday, 22d February, 1846, in the Independent or Congregational Church, at Dorchester, St. George´s Parish, in Observance of the 150th Anniversary of the Building of the Church In the year 1695, some pious, enterprising persons in Dorchester, Mass., and the adjoining towns, were led, by letters they had received from thence, and the verbal representations of individuals who knew the spiritual destitution of that region, to conceive the project of forming a colony "to go to Carolina and settle the gospel there." The Independent or Congregational Church at Dorchester, S. C, is the fruit of that enterprise. After the emigrants were organized into a church, and provided with a minister, ordained for the purpose, with their families, they left their former homes near the close of the year 1695. Early the year following,(1696) they selected a site upon the Ashley river for a settlement; giving the place the name of the one they had left. The house they then erected for public worship, still remains. It was built a quarter of a century earlier than any other for a similar purpose in the neighborhood, and having stood a century and a half, is a venerable memorial of the past, and an object of interest to those whose own or ancestral associations are connected with it. For further particulars of the founding and subsequent history of the church, see notes to following Discourse.
