Synopsis

Excerpt from The Inner Life of the Christian

From the time that Dr. Ranch arrived in America, he had devoted himself with great assiduity to the study Of the language Of his adopted country, and soon acquired a thorough knowledge of its laws and idioms; and, if we except pronunciation, he may be said to have mastered nearly all its peculiarities. Hence he began to use the English language in the class-room as soon as he took charge Of the School at York. But when he became President of Marshall College, he felt that his duty to the Institution demanded something more. He Opened a regular Sunday Service in the College Chapel for the particular benefit of the students, and took his turn with his colleagues in the public preaching Of the Gospel. AS these discourses were ela borated generally with Special care, and have frequently been solicited for the press by those who are cognizant of their intrinsic value, a number of them were placed in the hands Of the Editor for revision and publication about a year ago by a relative Of the Author; and the present volume is the result.

About this title

Product Description

Excerpt from The Inner Life of the Christian Rev. Frederick Augustus Rauch, born in Kirchbracht, Hesse Darmstadt, July 27th, 1806, was a graduate of the University of Marburg; subsequently he prosecuted the study of Philosophy and Theology in Giessen and Heidelberg, and was then appointed Professor of Philosophy successively in these two celebrated Universities. Becoming obnoxious to Government by the expression of rather liberal political sentiments, he emigrated to America in 1831, and spent nearly a year in Easton, Pennsylvania, where he was elected Professor of the German Language in Lafayette College. In the fall of 1832, he was elected Principal of a Classical School, located at York, Pa., and filled the office for three years with superior ability and great success. In 1835, the School was removed to Mercersburg, and converted into a college by a charter from the Legislature of the State, under the name and title of Marshall College. Dr. Rauch was chosen President. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
