Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Historical Address at the Semi-Centennial of the Second Presbyterian Church, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, January 12, 1883 Presbyteriancommunities; and that the documents themselves should be deposited in some suitable, permanent place for safe keeping. The manuscript was left by the author just as it had been prepared for public delivery, much of it in the form of notes, and She had gone over it, indicating in a general way what modi fications or omissions might be made; and had the final prepara tion for the printer been in her hands She would doubtless have exercised, to a greater degree than has seemed allowable to an other, the privilege that belonged to him Of making any modifi cations of style and statement of the spoken address in giving it permanent published form. In regard to the documents, which had always been freely accessible, Since they had come into his possession, to any desiring fuller information, recognizing a community of interest, of the membership of both congregations in Carlisle, in the associations connected with those that antedate the division in 1833, she proposed, in accordance with what she had reason to believe was the wish of her father, to place them in the safe keeping of the Presbyterian Historical Society of Phil adelphia, in the fire-proof vault provided for such deposits, where they would be secure, and accessible, as well, to any specially in terested in them. E have, accordingly, been carefully mounted and arrange preservation and reference, and placed as a permanent deposit with that Society. It was her purpose, also, to have a complete set of reduced photographic facsimiles made, direct from the negatives, of all the more important doc uments, as a memorandum, in many respects almost equal for reference to the originals in authenticity. This part of her plan has also been carried out, and duplicates of these photographic facsimiles, from thirty negatives, have been bound in with copies of the address, and placed in the Hamilton Library, Carlisle, Pa., and in the library of the Presbyterian Historical Society of Phila delphia.
