This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New England Meeting House With a History of the Congregational Meeting Houses in Hollis, N. H: A Discourse on the Centennial Anniversary of the Building of the Present Meeting House The Old Home Week Association at its first meeting this year expressed a desire to observe the centennial anniversary of the erection of our meeting house in connection with its Old Home Week observances. A vote was passed requesting a discourse suitable to the occasion on Old Home Week Sunday, and a committee was appointed, consisting of Charles S. Spalding, Cyrus F. Burge and Daniel W. Hayden, to co-operate with a like committee appointed from the church, in furnishing facts for use on the occasion. The church subsequently appointed as its committee Dea. Enoch J. Colburn, Miss Emma L. VanDyke and Wilbert P. Farley. Old Home Week Sunday brought together a congregation of nearly four hundred fifty people. The choir, George A. Ladd, chorister, occupying the old singers seats or gallery, had made special preparation for the day, and was led in its singing by two violins, a cornet, and a double bass viol. At the conclusion of the morning service Silas M. Spalding asked the privilege of speaking, and then called for a vote expressive of a desire that the discourse be printed. The response was so hearty that arrangements were immediately made to put it in type. The cut of the meeting house of 1804, which is given herein, was drawn from descriptions, and as these vary it is possible that in minor details it may not be accurate.

Download or read book Forgotten Voices written by Carolyn Wakeman and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inclusive early history of an iconic New England church The history inscribed in New England's meetinghouses waits to be told. There, colonists gathered for required worship on the Sabbath, for town meetings, and for court hearings. There, ministers and local officials, many of them slave owners, spoke about salvation, liberty, and justice. There, women before the Civil War found a role and a purpose outside their households. This innovative exploration of a coastal Connecticut town, birthplace of two governors and a Supreme Court Chief Justice, retrieves the voices preserved in record books and sermons and the intimate views conveyed in women's letters. Told through the words of those whose lives the meetinghouse shaped, Forgotten Voices uncovers a hidden past. It begins with the displacement of Indigenous people in the area before Europeans arrived, continues with disputes over worship and witchcraft in the early colonial settlement, and looks ahead to the use of Connecticut's most iconic white church as a refuge and sanctuary. Relying on the resources of local archives, the contents of family attics, and the extensive records of the Congregational Church, this community portrait details the long ignored genocide and enslaved people and reshapes prevailing ideas about history's makers. Meticulously researched and including 75 color illustrations, Forgotten Voices will be of interest to anyone exploring the roots of community life in New England. The book is the joint project of the Old Lyme meetinghouse and the Florence Griswold Museum. The museum will host a major exhibit in 20192020, exploring the role of the meetinghouse.

Book The Sabbath in Puritan New England

Download or read book The Sabbath in Puritan New England written by Alice Morse Earle and published by IndyPublish.com. This book was released on 1891 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early meeting-houses in country parishes were seldom painted, such outward show being thought vain and extravagant. In the middle of the eighteenth century paint became cheaper and more plentiful, and a gay rivalry in church-decoration sprang up. One meeting-house had to be as fine as its neighbor. Votes were taken, "rates were levied," gifts were asked in every town to buy "colour" for the meeting-house.
