Excerpt from The Leader Fallen: A Sermon Preached in the Rutgers-Street Church, New-York, on Sabbath Morning, April 11th, 1841
The delay in sending you the manuscript has been caused by the necessity of writing it out entirely from the few brief and hastily-prepared notes from which it was first preached. To do this, I have been obliged to confine my self to such intervals as were allowed by many other engagements. I trust that I have succeeded in reproducing the substance of what was spoken, and that you will be able to recognise, what I have endeavoured to preserve as nearly as possible, the very language. But, notwithstanding this endeavour, I have not refrained from expanding some of the thoughts which were but rap idly touched in preaching. The result has been to make the whole somewhat longer than I ventured to make it in the pulpit, even on such a Special occa sion. The reader, however, will have this compensating advantage, that if, as a bearer, he were too well bred to leave the preacher in the midst of his dis course, he can lay down the author at pleasure.
