Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Centennial Discourse: Delivered in Westhampton, Mass., Sept. 3d, 1879, on the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Formation of the Church in That Town
Lord Macaulay says, that any people who are indifferent to the noble achievements of remote ancestors, are not likely to achieve any thing worthy to be remembered by their descendants. Let us, then, attempt to look into the deeds of the Fathers of Z/zz's not with a blind reve rence for what they did, whether it was good or bad, but with that which will enable us to ascertain what was good in their example, and with the resolution to profit by it.
