Book excerpt: Excerpt from Minutes of the Annual Session of the Synod of New Jersey: Held in the First Presbyterian Church, New Brunswick, N. J., October, 1895; With an Appendix The Synod of New Jersey met at New Brunswick, in the First Church, on Tuesday, October 15th, 1895, at 3 o'clock P.M. After devotional services, the following communication from the Moderator was read: Blackwood, N. J., October nth, 1895. Dear Brethren of the Synod of New Jersey - It was my hope, at the closing of the session of the Synod of New Jersey last year, to be permitted to come to you this year with a rich experience, obtained from an acquaintance with the places where our Lord and Master lived and taught and died and rose again, but He ordered otherwise, frustrating my plans, laying me upon a bed of pain and weakness and retiring me from active work altogether. I went on my trip to the Holy Land, was taken down with pneumonia and pleurisy on the steamship four days after we left New York, was confined to my stateroom three weeks and to the ship forty days. I was not able to put my foot on the land I so earnestly desired to see. Since my return I have been somewhat of an invalid. The last two months, from a relapse of lung trouble, I have been confined to my home. But the Lord does all things well, and as His servant I humbly submit to His will. The apostle Paul said, "My heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they may be saved." So, I think I can say, my heart's desire and prayer to God for New Jersey is, that the people of this State may be saved. Within its bounds our Synod has been placed by the Great Head of the Church. This is the vineyard which we are especially to cultivate. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
