Book Description

Excerpt from Memorials of the Rev. Charles W. Baird, D.D: For Twenty-Six Years Pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Rye, New York, With a Few Selected Sermons and Sacred Poems The wish has been widely expressed by those who hold the noble Christian life of the late Rev. Dr. Charles W. Baird, of Rye, in grateful and affectionate remembrance, that the accounts of the last exercises in his honor might be gathered and placed in a permanent form. It has been urged that many of his parishioners and personal friends would esteem it a privilege to possess the record of the tender words spoken in the church, the very appreciative delineations of his character and work as pastor, preacher, and historian, given later at the memorial services, and some, at least, of the tributes rendered in the public press to his useful and honored course.
