Book Description

Excerpt from A Memorial Discourse on the Occasion of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Concord Female Charitable Society: Delivered in the North Church, Concord, N. H., On Sunday Evening, January 26, 1862 Verily I say unto you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, he told for a memorial of her. WE are assembled this evening to commemorate the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Concord Female Charitable Society: an Institution whose origin, objects and results entitle it on this occasion to honorable mention, and form for it a memorial worthy to be handed down to future generations. In some points, there is a beautiful analogy between the case of the woman whose single act of affection and sacrifice for her Saviour is so highly commended, and that of this Society whose deeds we propose to rehearse and commemorate. These points of analogy will become sufficiently apparent in the course of our narrative. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
