Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Farewell Discourse: Delivered to the Church and Society of the First Parish in West Springfield, May 3, 1835, on Resigning His Pastoral Charge
Under the circumstances of the present occasion, brethren, I think I cannot select language more appro priate from which to address you - certainly _none more in accordance with my own feelings, than this of the Apostle. The union which has subsisted so happily between us is broken. In this sanctuary where we have enjoyed many precious seasons, we meet for the last time as pastor and people: we meet to offer the parting address. I confess my heart sinks at the thought. Suffer me to speak a few words of exhortation and counsel before we separate. Let us guide our meditations by the several parts of the verse before us.
