The National Bereavement : A Sermon on the Death of Abraham Lincoln, Delivered April 23, 1865, in the Presbyterian Church, Newburgh (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The National Bereavement: A Sermon on the Death of Abraham Lincoln, Delivered April 23, 1865, in the Presbyterian Church, Newburgh

In the present discourse I do not intend to draw a parallel be tween this king and the lamented President - two great rulers who were cut down in the mid-day of their glory - for in the one case we have only the judgement of men, but in the other the unerring decision'of God in his revealed word. In the death of both, however, and the deep sensation produced thereby, there is something in common, and much for instruction and warning.
