I. SERVICES AT CONCORD. THE martyrdom of John Brown was most worthily cele. brated at Concord, l\Iassachusctts. The town which in. auguratcd the fir t American " In~urrection" wa faithfu l to its traditions in doing honor to the fil' t martyr of the second and the grander Revolutiou; and, unlike other towns, equally zeal. ou' for ju tice, and equally de iron of doing honor to the merits and memory of John Brown, it possessed more men by natm·e fit for the occa. ion, than any other communiry of the same population in the Union. The meeting at Concord assembled in the Town Ilall at two o'clock in the afternoon, Dec. 2d, and wa. called to order by tlJC lion. ~imon Brown, who Raid that on this clay Virginia had inflicted on herself a worse blow than all her enemies l1ad ever done or could do; she had, under the forms of law, mur dered her tru('st friend. Rev. E. II. SEARS, of Wayland, offered up the following PRAYER. Our Father who art in l1eaven, we deRire nt this hour to gather our. ~elves clost'r within thine omnipotence and mercy; for when a sense of this world's oppres~ions and wrongs hangs heavily upon us, to whom shall we go but unto thee? Tl10u do~t uni te us to thyself by tics of filial love, and to our fellow-men by the tics of n common l.>t"othcrhood, for thou hast given us all one human heart. Look down at this hour from thy ha.ly heavens, nnd extend thy protecting providence ;) 7-;;. (437) |
