TRIBUTE TO THE MEMORY OF THE REV. NOAH WORCESTER, D. D. IN A DISCOURSE DELIVERED IN BOSTON, NOVEMBER 12, 1837, BY WILLIAM E. CHANNING. BOSTON: PUBLISHED BY JOSEPH DOWE. The circumstances, under which the following discourse has been requested for the press, forbid the author to withhold it; and yet he is aware, that it must disappoint those who may look to it for some extended notice of the life and character of the excellent man, by whose death it was occasioned. In preparing it, the author had time to give only his first recollections and impressions; nor does he think it worth his while to make additions now, as he trusts, that an autobiography, left by Dr Worcester, will be given to the public, in which case all other notices will be of little value. |
