A Memorial of the Dedication of Monuments Erected by the Moravian Historical Society: To Mark the Sites of Ancient Missionary Stations in New York and Connecticut (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from A Memorial of the Dedication of Monuments Erected by the Moravian Historical Society: To Mark the Sites of Ancient Missionary Stations in New York and Connecticut
T HE following pages contain an account of the dedi cation of two monuments, lately erected by the' Moravian Historical Society, on the sites of once flourishing Moravian mission stations, among the New England Indians, in New York and Connecticut.
The Committee to whom that body intrusted the execu tion of its project, felt themselves called upon to secure a record of a historical transaction, and at the same time to gratify the inquiry and interest known to have been awakened on the side of the public, as well as among many individuals more directly concerned. With the preparation of such a narrative the Committee on Monuments charged the author of this volume. Naturally enough he did not contemplate inserting the Moravian sacred music, and the full detail of the ritual of the Moravian Church; but by others it was thought proper that the narrative should be a faithful record of all that passed at scenes deeply interest ing and impressive, for that thus might best be preserved forever fresh the very words and tones that in those plea sant scenes had bound in loving brotherhood the hearts of those Who had gathered together to honor the memory of men of peace, of faithful soldiers of the cross.
