Lincoln funeral sermons
Came across this website consisting of a number of sermons preached after Lincoln's assassination. Seems pretty interesting.
Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg

Rob,
Great link. I was surprised to see Alexander Bullock's sermon in there from my hometown. Craig |

RE: Lincoln funeral sermons
Wonderful resource, Rob! Thanks a bunch -- I wrote a paper on Lincoln's assassination and mourning in my Grad years....too bad that I didn't know about this resource!
I knew that Dr. Abram Dunn Gillette, Powell's comforter in the death cell and on the gallows, had written a sermon on Lincoln's death but could never find it! There it is - April 23, 1865 - thanks a bunch! "The Past is a foreign country...they do things differently there" - L. P. Hartley |
