Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Brief Memoir of the Late Rev. Richard Davis, of Walworth: With a Sketch of the Sermon Delivered on Occasion of His Death
The subject of this sketch entered upon the work of the ministry without a regular education. One reason was, that he was married before he was called into the ministry; and another was, that the advantages of Academical instruction were not so highly appreciated when he began his course as they have since been, while they were not so accessible as they are at the present period. He was not without his thoughts on this subject; but either they never came to any degree of maturity, or else circumstances prevented him from carrying them into effect. After all, he per haps sustained less injury from his loss in this.
