Francis Jackson Garrison, William Lloyd Garrison, 1805-1879; the story of his life told by his children: volume 2, Chapter 3: the Clerical appeal.—1837. (search)
immediately following the Boston mob, Mr. Garrison's thoughts, so far from being driven in and concentrated upon the one abolition reform, were taking a wider range, among subjects upon which much light remains to be thrown, and which are of the utmost importance to the temporal and eternal welfare of man. In this he was but sharing the spirit of the age—a spirit of almost universal ferment, which perhaps exhibited its greatest activity and its greatest moderation in Massachusetts. As Mr. Frothingham well says, in his Life of Theodore Parker, all institutions and all ideas P. 125. went into the furnace of reason, and were tried by fire. Church and state were put to the proof, and the wood, hay, stubble—everything combustible—were consumed. The beginning of this period may be sought as far back Goodell's Slavery and Anti-Slavery, p. 387. as 1825, R. W. Emerson refers this era of activity, this schism between the party of the Past and the party of the Future: the Establishment<

f surprised glance— Well, are you still here? Is there no end to you? As the year of solitary study drew to a close, the young recluse began to consider the importance of being regularly authorized to preach and the desirableness of being associated with a special set of young men. These views were reinforced by a strong appeal from his class to rejoin them. He heard the class exercises when his special friends, Johnson, —whom he calls my young hero and prophet,— Longfellow, and O. B. Frothingham were graduated, and Johnson's oration on this occasion had a profound effect upon him. He felt a strong desire to speak himself on next Visitation Day on the Relation of the Clergy to Reform. In August, 1846, Higginson had a long talk with Dr. Francis, then dean of the school, about reentering his class, which resulted in a letter to the Faculty of Theology, applying for readmission. In this the writer, speaking of himself in the third person, explains his reason for withdrawal—th

of the Atlantic attracted a great deal of attention. A Charge with Prince Rupert was considered one of the most brilliant of these early papers; while the first one, Saints and their Bodies, so impressed Dr. D. A. Sargent, afterward director of the Harvard Gymnasium, that he was led to adopt physical training as a profession. In reference to one of the essays, Woman and the Alphabet, This article was also published as a tract under the title Ought Women to Learn the Alphabet? Rev. O. B. Frothingham wrote to ask the author if it was abstinence from soups—and salt—and pastry that enabled him to write such papers. Tell me how much liquid, he asked, I must exchange for such a flow of thoughts—how much pepper must be forsaken to leave such spice of wit? How much pie crust must be sacrificed for such a crispness of style? This striking essay was at first considered by James Russell Lowell, then editor of the Atlantic Monthly, as too radical for that magazine, but he afterwards dec<

l are brothers; so are Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and Samuel Longfellow. There is something filial in the scholar Ticknor's pious task of editing the sermons of the Rev. Joseph Stevens Buckminster, one generation before him. Emerson's forefathers had been clergymen for seven generations; and within his single life the early days as preacher and the later days as sacer avtes were bound each to each by natural piety. So were those of John Gorham Palfrey, George Ripley, and Octavius Brooks Frothingham, and of such clerical families as the Channings, the Abbotts, the Wares, the Beechers, the Muhlenbergs, and the Dwights, whose pietas, priestly, educational, juristic, and literary, has extended unto the third generation and beyond. It would be easy, but needless, to multiply examples in proof of the close and various personal connections between our divinity and our scholarship and literature. The family tradition is evident at once in Edwards's disciples. The sons of Jonathan, whe
