TO H. O. HITCHCOCK, M. D., AND OTHERS :—

Respected Friends:-The sermon, of which you ask a copy, being one of five upon the same topic, is incomplete as a discussion, consisting, in fact, of deductions from a discussion which had preceded. I shall not, however, for this reason fail to comply with your request; for I confess it is specially gratifying to me, that just this sermon has been asked for, showing, as it does, that others share with me interest in a neglected top ic, of vital relation to the welfare of the church.
