Reverend and Dear Brother:
Attracted by the title of your discourse
on the recent Fast Day, displayed as it was
in conspicuous type on the front part of
the Daily Hessian, I purchased a copy of
that excellent paper, and carefully la 7 it
away for Sunday reading. When I com
menced Its perusal, this Sabbath morning,
I had intended to repair, as is my wont, to
the Sanotuary—but ere I was half through
'the (minium' of your dim:mitre the church
hells sounded and I felt myself quite unable
to break off abiuptly in the midst of so
much learning, eloquence and loyalty. In
asmuch, therefore, m dear brother, as you
are responsible for mi absence from. ahurok_
I reel that I cannot employ my leisure at
home better than inditing a few thoughts
suggested by the perusal of your sermon.
Of course what I have to say is Intended
for no eye but your own, and I beg of you
to destroy these pages as soon as you have_
read them lest they should fall into the.
hands of some Copperhead who might per
vert or misinterpret their meaning.
• The most pleasing -and' striking feature,
my dear brother, in your diseourte, is the
iimmense encouragement itbolds out to loyal
sinners. No Universalist e'er opened the
gate of heaven wider or made the road
thither , smoother for the general public than

as a s , subject admirably adapted to your

the term " contraband" a disgrace. All

so far, proved ineffectual. Theill attach
