Publisher description
Excerpt from Discourses and Poems of William Newell, Minister of the First Parish in Cambridge: A Memorial VolumeMr. Newell remained the minister of the First Parish in Cambridge until his retirement in March, 1868. In 1835, he married the daughter of William Wells, well known to the last generation of inhabitants of Cambridge. His friendship and relationship with his wife's family was a personal tie which bound him to Cambridge, as did his undying love for his ock. Here, he ministered for forty five years: with the people, the surroundings, all the dearest affections of his soul and memories of his life were inter twined. Here, he passed through all the varied experien ces of the birth, growth, and loss of beloved children, and the alternations of prosperity and trial which belong to all human existence. With these, however, this notice has nothing to do. He himself never introduced them into his public utterances. Not what concerned himself as an individual, but the life of the community to which he ministered did he treat of before that community. Had he been solitary in respect of domestic relations, the same discourses might have been prepared and delivered. His religious feelings depended on no such external rela tions, tender and sensitive as his affections were.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
