Great History of a relative unknown minister. The pastorate of the Roger Williams church in Providence became vacant soon after his resignation had been sent to the society at Olneyville. But not until final action by the latter, sundering the relationship which had subsisted' between them, would he listen to any proposition fur his labors elsewhere; and after his pastorate had formally closed, private solicitations having reference to the Providence pastorate were met by little encouragement. While at Edinburgh he received a formal call to the Roger Williams church, with the privilege of a vacation of six months before he should assume its active duties. Accepting the call, he decided to devote three months to a European tour, and sailed from New York, June 24. Having visited England, Scotland, Germany, Switzerland and France, he reached home Sept. 23. Before going abroad he had become sufficiently strengthened to be able to enjoy with comparatively few physical hindrances, the taxation of strength, arising from the experiences of a tourist. PROVIDENCE. 1857 1866.
