Excerpt from Man's Frailty, and God's Immutability: A Discourse, Preached in Taunton, on Friday, May 14th, 1841, the Day of National Fast, in Commemoration of the Death of William Henry Harrison, Late President of the United States
We are assembled, my friends, on an occasion which revives affecting memories. But we are come together at a time more favorable to calm reflection, than when on a former day, some few weeks since, we met in this place to ponder on the painful dispensation to which I allude, - that solemn National Bereavement which called our country to mourn the sudden demise of her venerated Chief Magistrate.

It may be proper to premise at the same time, in explanation of the limited range of topics embraced in the following pages, that the author had previously addressed his Congregation exclusively upon the same subject in his sermon delivered on the Annual State Fast, Thursday the 8th of April.* As he was unwilling to repeat the sentiments then advanced, he avoided, so far as possible, their introduction into his discourse of the 14th of May and where the recurrence could not be prevented, he was careful to present his reflections under other forms. The length of the performance compelled the omission of several pages in the delivery and these have been supplied from the author's notes in the order and shape as originally prepared.
