Opis: A Retrospect of Fifty Years - Clark Hobart

Excerpt from A Retrospect of Fifty Years: A Discourse

We are not called upon to-day as we meet to crate the beginnings of this church, to look back into a remote antiquity. We probably could, but need not try to trace its ancestry back through New England, and old England and Holland perhaps; to Palestine, and further yet among those dim, almost primeval shadows of religious life and thought from which the liberal Christian fellowship of to-day has slowly emerged. We need not to go further back than that year in which the Church of the Redeemer - of which you and I are the living representatives - was born. The year 1852 a.d. seems to have been in no wise a remarkable year in the world's history. It was the year in which Napoleon III. became the emperor of France. Victoria had been queen of England for fifteen years. Millard Fillmore - a Unitarian - was President of the United States. The anti-slavery conflict, which was to result in the great civil war of nine years later, was at its height, approaching rapidly an acute and critical stage.
