Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Memorial Sermon Preached in the Baldwin-Place Meeting House: On the Last Sabbath of Its Occupancy by the Second Baptist Church
Church, and who died, in hope of the imperishable glory. The records of this Church tell us that Coleman and Wheelock, Adoniram Judson, Sen., Henry J. Ripley, and Irab Chase, were once members here; that about sixty ministers have presided over, or gone out from, this body; the latter, some to the dis tant East, where, amid the spicy breezes, men worship gods of stocks and stones; some to the West, making its prairies blossom as the rose; and others to the vacant places around us here, blessing New England with their presence and their piety.
