OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH I'VE copy
from the Boston Journal, the following letter from
Daniel Webster, in reply 10 announcing that he
had been elected an honorary member Of the Balii-
more Sabbath Association. tits favorable testmo-
ny TO the Sabbath from source entitled to high con
sideratien:
WAsHINGroN. March 8, 1915.
Dear Sir feel greatly honored by your commu-
nication; which received my return to this city,
from the North, on Saturday; and am sincerely obg
ed to my Friend, Mr. Williams, for causing me to be
made a member of the Baltimore Sabbath Association
Tho longer live, the more highly do esteem the
Importance of proper observance Of the Christian
Sabbath, and the grateful do feel towards those
who take pains to impress Of this importance
on the community. The Lords day is the day on
which the Gospel is preached; it is the day Of public
worship throughout the Christian world. And al
though we live in reading age and in a reading
community, yet the preaching oflhe Gospel is the
form in which human agency has been and still is
most eficaciously employed for the spiritual improve
ment ofmen. That the poor had the Gospel preach
ed to them evidence Of his mission which the
Author Of Christianity himself proclaimed. And to
the public worship of the Deity. and the preaching of
the Gospel the observance of the Sabbath is obvious
" essential.
am, dear SIR with much regard,
Your obedent servant.
