Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecclesiastical and Other Sketches of Southington, Conn. By Rev. Heman R. Timlow Introduction 1. The reader will find this volume to be a mass of materials collected and printed for preservation, rather than a thoroughly digested history. I have felt myself to be a pioneer in the work. During the period of one hundred and eighty years, since the settlement of the town, no attempt has before been made to gather these materials. The Church Catalogue is all that has ever been published. It will be seen that very much must be incorporated in such a work as mine, that might have been omitted if preserved in some other form. But nothing like completeness could be secured unless I printed such matter, which oftentimes throws light on passing events. Such are some of the traditional and personal notices. And it is for the interest if not instruction of the present generation that such matter be placed before them. Some future historian will "draw" from these "Sketches" and prepare a more elaborate work. As a considerable portion of the volume was first put into the form of discourses, that style of writing has been retained. 2. It is only just to myself to state, that until within three years I knew nothing of the town, except its name; and the disadvantages arising from a recent and brief residence have appeared at every step. This entire work has really been performed within two years. Nor have I permitted this line of inquiry and study to interfere with my regular pulpit duties. Each week I have conscientiously prepared and preached sermons as if no other work was on hand. Adhering to a system, and economizing time, have done what otherwise would have been impossible. 3. My authorities have been the records of the Congregational church and Society, that during the earlier periods are only partial; records of the Baptist and Episcopal Churches; records of the towns of Southington (dating from 1779), Farmington, and Wallingford; Ecclesiastical records of Farmington; Colonial and Ecclesiastical records at Hartford; the records of both Hartford North Association and Consociation, and Hartford South Association and Consociation; diaries, memoranda, and various family papers of different periods; traditions in the oldest families of the town; old Bibles with records and marginal memoranda; manuscripts in the families of descendants of the earlier pastors; the "daily entries" of Rev. William Robinson, beginning with his ministry and continuing through his life; diary of the late Stephen Walkley, 1806-60; old documents placed in my hands by the late Joel Root, Jr.; Memoir of Rev. William Robinson, by his son; President Porter's Address, 1840; the local histories of various towns in New England; biographics, &c., &c.

This book has been carefully crafted to utilize the original images of antique books rather than error-prone OCR text. This also preserves the work of the original typesetters of these classics, unknown craftsmen who laid out the text, often by hand, of each and every page you will read. Their subtle art involving judgment and interaction with the text is in many ways superior and more human than the mechanical methods utilized today, and gave each book a unique, hand-crafted feel in its text that connected the reader organically to the art of bindery and book-making. We think these benefits are worth the occasional imperfection resulting from the age of these books at the time of scanning, and their vintage feel provides a connection to the past that goes beyond the mere words of the text.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ecclesiastical and Other Sketches of Southington, Conn Very much of what I have gathered is certainly new matter to the present generation. Fully three-fourths of the ecclesiastical history is for the first time brought to light. The only merit I claim is in the thoroughness and diligence with which I have examined old papers. When I began it was not supposed there was in existence material enough for a common sized pamphlet. As to the ministries of Mr. Curtiss and Mr. Chapman hardly anything was known beyond dates of settlement, dismission, 8m.

Book Synopsis Joseph Hopkins Twichell by : Steve Courtney
Download or read book Joseph Hopkins Twichell written by Steve Courtney and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bewilderment often follows when one learns that Mark Twain’s best friend of forty years was a minister. That Joseph Hopkins Twichell (1838-1918) was also a New Englander with Puritan roots only entrenches the “odd couple” image of Twain and Twichell. This biography adds new dimensions to our understanding of the Twichell-Twain relationship; more important, it takes Twichell on his own terms, revealing an elite Everyman--a genial, energetic advocate of social justice in an era of stark contrasts between America’s “haves and have-nots.” After Twichell’s education at Yale and his Civil War service as a Union chaplain, he took on his first (and only) pastorate at Asylum Hill Congregational Church in Hartford, Connecticut, then the nation’s most affluent city. Steve Courtney tells how Twichell shaped his prosperous congregation into a major force for social change in a Gilded Age metropolis, giving aid to the poor and to struggling immigrant laborers as well as supporting overseas missions and cultural exchanges. It was also during his time at Asylum Hill that Twichell would meet Twain, assist at Twain’s wedding, and preside over a number of the family’s weddings and funerals. Courtney shows how Twichell’s personality, abolitionist background, theological training, and war experience shaped his friendship with Twain, as well as his ministerial career; his life with his wife, Harmony, and their nine children; and his involvement in such pursuits as Nook Farm, the lively community whose members included Harriet Beecher Stowe and Charles Dudley Warner. This was a life emblematic of a broad and eventful period of American change. Readers will gain a clear appreciation of why the witty, profane, and skeptical Twain cherished Twichell’s companionship.

Download or read book Rebuilding the Christian Commonwealth written by John A. AndrewIII and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The foreign missionary movement of the early 19th century grew out of the efforts of churches in New England to deal with the changes then taking place in society. The erosion of traditional institutional structures and social values plus the rise of Unitarianism threatened the destruction of the traditional faith. Mr. Andrew holds that the Congregational clergy used foreign missions not only to implant New England culture in heathen lands but also to awaken a sense of community at home.
