Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Discourse in Commemoration of the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Formation of the First Congregational Church in Templeton, Massachusetts As it seemed desirable to make some commemoration of so interesting an event as the completion of the first century of the existence of the First Church of Christ in this town, the junior pastor, on Sunday, Dec. 9, 1855, the day preceding the anniversary, preached a Discourse, continued through both parts of the day, containing an historical sketch of the early settlement of the town and of the annals of the church. Rev. Dr. Wellington, the senior pastor, took part in the services, morning and afternoon, - reading the Scriptures and hymns, and offering prayers. Soon after the delivery of the Discourse, a request was made to have it printed; and arrangements were made for that purpose. But, before they were carried into execution, the desire was expressed, from many sources, that the writer should proceed to make some account also of the municipal affairs of the town since its incorporation. He assented to this in part, though not expecting, at first, to enter into so much detail as is done in the Appendix. The printing of the sermon has accordingly been delayed, in order that the whole might appear together. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
