Excerpt from Tributes to the Memory of Rev. Thomas Hill, D.D: Born January 7, 1818, Died November 21, 1891
After the regular Sunday morning service, November 22d, the associate pastor, Mr. Perkins, requested the congregation to remain, and descending from the pulpit, stood by the com munion table. He said in substance: We are met here with a deep sense of our common loss. As we look into each other's faces, we read there the same story of a great grief. Words cannot express our feelings at this time, yet we are here to give voice as best we may to a sorrow which is very near each one of us.
Silent prayer and the repetition in union of the Lord's prayer followed.
Mr. Perkins then called upon Judge Haskell, of the Parish committee, who said: Yesterday, when told of the death of our beloved pastor, the Rev. Dr. Hill, who has taught in this place for nearly a score of years, considering it best that some expression of the love we bore him and of the sorrow that we feel at his loss should be had to-day, we caused a brief testimonial to be written, and the author of it, Judge Symonds, is now requested to read it to you.
