Excerpt from The Sermon Preached at the Farewell Service in Old Trinity Church, Pittsburgh, Pa., On the Morning of the Nineteenth Sunday After Trinity, October 3d, 1869
Bride of Christ, is about to deck herself in beautiful gar ments. But there is mingled with such joy a strange sense of sadness and bereavement. The affections are shocked with the consciousness that these sacred walls, with their priceless memories, are to be forever swept away. We are assembled together here, for the last time to worship and praise. For the last time we are to kneel together here, to receive the Body and Blood of Christ, as the tokens of His dying love, and as the bond that makes us all one in Him. The occasion has seemed to me a fitting one to recall, as briefly as possible, some of the leading events in the his tory of a parish that has, for nearly four score years, taken no mean part in the planting and extension of the Church in all this region. There are many yet living who saw this House in its first glory - when it was esteemed, and indeed was for its day, a very triumph of genius. We who are strangers, so to speak, know little of the strong attachments entertained by some even for the material walls. No other spot on earth can throw the same spell around us, as the home of early life - and this House of God has been the Spiritual home of two generations. It would be strange, indeed, if it had not, in that time, become very dear to some, and it would be contrary to nature, if these did not feel a pang at thought of parting forever, with an object so long and so intimately associated with the joys and sorrows of their lives. Let us turn now to a brief survey of its varied history.
