ministers; that even so great and 
good a man as Whitefield, who, it is 
true, was sometimes unguarded in his 
speech, aroused great opposition by 
his evangelistic labors; and that such 
schismatics as Antinomians, Quakers 
and Baptists were looked upon with 
grave suspicion and often summarily 
dealt with. But there were excep- 
tions ; Cotton Mather, a Puritan of 
the Puritans, bore testimony of the 
Baptists of Boston, that they were 
“as holy, watchful, heavenly and 
fruitful a people, perhaps, as any in 
the world.’”” And his father, Incréase 
Mather, president of Harvard College, 
preached an ordination sermon in the 
Baptist meeting-house on the theme, 
“Good Men United.” 
It may be said of the old New Eng- 
land ministers, good men as they 
were, 
“ Not to them was given all light 
For all coming days.” 
We do honor to them as a true- 
hearted, godly race of men. They 
were almost without exception irre- 
proachablein their personal character, 
and loyal to the country in times of 
stress and danger; they were the 
friends of education and the con- 
science of the community. For gen- 
erations they illustrated the fact that 
“The pulpit is in the sober use 
Of its legitimate, peculiar powers, 
The most important and effectual guard, 
Support and ornament of virtue’s cause.” 
Peace to their memory.
