Book excerpt: In Which Reminds Me Duane Windemiller paints a picture of his spiritual pilgrimage from farm boy to college professor-through wars and tranquility-social struggles and personal victory-tears and laughter, to the sense of Jesus' words: "Well done, my good and faithful servant." The picture on the cover is of the author of this book-pastor of the Hampton Beach, NH, summer time chapel. The congregation calls him Windy and he calls himself Sacred Agent 007. The chapel, known as "The Singing Church," is unusual. The bulletin board invites all to "Come as You Are-Happy Hour 9:30." There is laughter and 150 to 200 voices singing gospel music to the beat of a rocking and rolling piano-enough to drown out the shrieking and splashing from the water slide next door. Being pastor of this chapel for twenty-four years caps the long and multi-faceted career of Doc Windy who invites you on a picturesque guided tour nearly ninety years long.

At no period of my life had I experienced such feelings of anxiety, apprehension and discomfort as oppressed me at this time. The idea of leaving behind me a wife and eight little girls without a protector, was in itself most distressing, but when to this was added the expectation of an addition to the number which might occur at any hour, I was placed in a most embarrassing dilemma. I came to the conclusion that I would not leave home before the expected event occurred, as no consideration of duty or honor demanded such a sacrifice. Providentially, however, my tenth daughter was ushered into a troubled world about midnight of the twenty-second of April. We were under marching orders for eight a . m. on the twentythird, about eight hours afterwards. My wife, with that unselfish courage which always characterized her, said I must accompany the battalion if I thought it my duty to do so. I continued to balance the conflicting claims of domestic and public duty without reaching a decision, until the beating of the drums and the whistle of the awaiting train forced me to action. I then cheered my wife with the assurance that I would almost surely be able to get leave of absence for a few days before the command would leave Richmond, and would then pay her a visit, and with this promise we parted. I doubt if any other soldier answered the call leaving a wife in bed and a baby eight hours old. Before I started, my wife asked what we should call the baby, I answered that I left it entirely to her. By some means the peculiar circumstances of the case became public, and the Richmond Whig, at that time a journal of large influence and circulation suggested as appropriate for the little stranger the name of "Virginia Secessia, ..".
Download or read book PLYMOUTH MEMORIES OF AN OCTOGENARIAN written by WILLIAM T. DAVIS and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 2023-06-02 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the death of every person something within the range of his study and knowledge is lost beyond recovery. In publishing this book of memories it is my desire to rescue from oblivion persons and events coming under my observation during a long life, and to make a record of habits, customs and fashions which have prevailed at different periods within my knowledge. The book is not intended to be either in any sense an autobiography, or a mere collection of interesting reminiscences, but a legacy which I wish to leave for the benefit of those coming after me. I cannot permit its publication without a grateful acknowledgment of the service rendered during its preparation by friends too numerous to be mentioned by name in contributing material essential to its approximate completeness and accuracy. — WM. T. DAVIS. FROM THE BOOK.

Download or read book Reminiscences of an Octogenarian written by Bruce M. Metzger and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 1995-09-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bruce Manning Metzger's memoirs trace his life from his childhood in the Pennsylvania Dutch country and his student years at Princeton through his distinguished career of teaching, writing, lecturing, and editing. Professor Metzger's work has won him the gratitude of both biblical scholars and the larger Bible-reading public. His text-critical work on the New Testament is reflected in the standard Greek text now used and appreciated by scholars worldwide. His efforts on the Revised Standard and New Revised Standard versions of the Bible helped produce the readable, accurate English translations used for study and devotion by so many. His work on The Reader's Digest Bible and The Oxford Companion to the Bible has made the Bible more accessible for an untold number of readers. In these memoirs, Professor Metzger's own words put a human face on his monumental scholarly achievements. The wide array of stories and vignettes--from Senator Joseph McCarthy's attack on RSV committee members and Metzger's audiences with the pope to the time Professor Metzger and other members of the NRSV committee had to crawl out of a library window to get to their dinner--offer the reader a personal insight into some of the twentieth century's crucial developments in the text and translation of the Bible.
