Rev Mr Guild of Milton preached yesterday at Park St.
from hebrews 2-9 herelated an account of a gentleman
a governor of a neighboring state who was present at a
protracted meeting a short time ago - he then rose and
said he had been in the persuit of happiness his whole
life - he had tried the power of fame and had received
high honors but they were unsatisfying - he had sought
wealth and abundant riches had been bestowed - he had
tried the vanities of the world - but all were inadequate
he had only obtained true happiness in religion - he
had lived seventy years and the preceding day had
proved the happiest of his whole life
Lift your Eyes of faith and see
Saints and angels joined in one
What a countless company
Stand before yon dazzling throne
