A Sermon Delivered at the Ordination of the Reverend Ephraim Abbot to the Personal Care of the Congregational Church and Society in Greenland (New Hampshire), October 27th, 1813 by the Reverend Eliphalet Pearson LL. D. (Andover; Flagg and Gould, Printers, 1813)
Donation of Reverend C.C. Carpenter
NOTES:
Good condition
Note A is a communication between Pearson and unknown, yet respectable person commenting on the informality between Freewill Baptists in Maine and God and the impurity of the Christian faith there, author goes on to state that this motivated Pearson to preach the “truth” even more
Note B concerns Georg Brackett Esq. paid $200 annually to the salary of a minister in a church in Greenland, which I assume to be the Congregational Church
Two other sermons after notes of book, one titled “Charge” by a Reverend Huntington Porter of Rye and one titled “The Right Hand of Friendship” by a Reverend Jonathan French of Northampton
Names of three other Greenland ministers at very end: William Allen, Samuel Macclintock, James Armstrong Neal
