Excerpt from A Sermon, Occasioned by the Death of William Henry Harrison, Late President of the U. States: Delivered in the Cedar St. Presbyterian Church, on Sabbath, April 11th, 1841
It is not my intention in this discourse to dwell upon the history of the honoured dead; nor, is this the place. There are many, I doubt not, who, from their intimate acquaintance with the political affairs of our country for the last fifty years - from their personal knowledge of the worth and excellence of our departed President, in the domestic, social, and public walks of life, as well as his undaunted heroism on the field of battle, in the day of our national struggle against oppression, when men's souls were tried, are thus better qualified than I am, to render to his memory that tribute of praise which he, as an instrument in the hand of God, deserves from us. To them I leave the perform ance of this duty, and feel confident that it will be well done.
