Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Nation Humbled and Exalted: A Discourse on the Death of President Lincoln, With Its Providential Lessons, Delivered in the Fagg's Manor Presbyterian Church, on the Day of National Humiliation, June 1st, 1865
Humble yourselves, therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. - 1 Peter 5: 6, 7.
The occasion calls for humiliation on the part of the whole people, and the casting of all our national cares upon the na tion's God. Summoned by the highest magisterial request, we appear, in common with our fellow citizens in every part of the land, around the altars of the sanctuary to-day for this great and significant purpose. From one end of the country to the other the sensibilities of a nation's grief will be touched, and the sacrifices of humiliation ascend to the most High.
