Excerpt from An Historical Discourse: Delivered Before the First Congregational Society in Harvard, Massachusetts, October 22, 1882
Still, some of you may consider the discourse which I have prepared for this time and place, better adapted to the platform than the pulpit, nearer in accordance with the teaching of the Lyceum, than those of the sanctuary of worship; still, you will allow me to speak my word as I hold it good, and leave the criticisms that shall come out of it to subsequent consideration.
In accordance with a suggestion of one of your num ber, I propose to discourse upon the past condition of your town in general, your religious society in particular, its present aspects and future prospects, regretting that I am compelled to confine my thoughts and words to the few pages of an ordinary sermon.

Excerpt from An Historical Discourse: Delivered Before the First Congregational Society in Harvard, Massachusetts, October 22, 1882
In the latter part of the year 1882, it was my privilege to supply the pulpit of the First Congregational Society in Harvard, for a few Sundays, while the parish was awaiting the time appointed for the installation of their minister, Mr. Maglathlin, to whom a call had been given and accepted. During this period, I was requested by a member of the society to prepare an historical discourse for the following Sunday, to which I assented. The delivery of the sermon, I supposed, would be the only publication which my hastily written performance would receive, but, a person outside of the parish and the town has requested its presentation in its present form to which, knowing its imperfection, I have reluctantly consented.
