Book Description
Excerpt from A Sermon Delivered in the First Presbyterian Church, Newburyport, August 23, 1857: Commemorative of the Character of Miss. Mary C. Greenleaf; Late a Missionary Teacher at Wapanucka, in the Chickasaw Nation Blessed henceforth among women, was this Mary She had done what she could. And though it was not much, perhaps, compared with the resources and means of others, yet for her it was much and more, as the providence of God ordered it to her praise, than she could by possibility have anticipated; she had wrought a good, a well-timed work upon him, prepar atory and Significant of his burial. And this her act of afl'ec= tion was more approved by the Master than sounding charities, than conspicuous service where the heart is wanting, or than holocausts and offerings. She hath gained thereby, without effort, what ambition often strives in vain to acquire, an endur ing memorial. The Saviour himself has spoken her eulogium, and it will stand while the world shall last wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her. The incident whose points I have thus imperfectly sketched, and especially the text, have struck me as peculiarly appropri ate to my present purpose which is to pay a tribute of affec tion to the memory of another Mary, who formerly went in and out among you in the acts of a consistent Christian life but of whom we have recently heard, that she has passed away from earth forever. I can rear no monument over her distant grave to show my appreciation of this excellent woman. But it is my greater privilege to speak of her life, an impressive lesson to those who survive. She, also, hath her memorial; her pious zeal and devotion to the cause of Christ and of souls, her whole career of self-denying labor so fitly closed this that she hath done, shall be told for a memorial of her.
