W.S. Curtis of Ann Arbor preached on the occasion. Liberty is given to insert the following statement of Mr. Marsh, viz.: "A devoted home missionary's life is of course full of incidents. He has to grapple with all the various elements of mind, with wickedness and error, and talk kindly and reason strongly with all. I could tell you of being kicked out of doors, and the fact bringing all the Unviersalists around to hear me preach the next Sabbath; of mock meetings, and of spies sent over to our meetings to get something to mock at and their being detained, captured, and, by the grace of God, made new men; of a man getting up in a public congregation and making voluntary confession for his yesterday's abuse of me. But let one example of confession suffice for the whole. One very severe Saturday night, just as the clock struck twelve, someone knocked at my door very loud. On opening the door a tall figure stood there. 'Mr._____,' said he, 'will you forgive me?' Certainly, but who are you" said I. 'O, that wicked______.' naming himself, 'that has made you so much trouble' He had opposed me in every possible way for two years, and now had come through the cold for two miles, at dead of a tedious night, to ask my forgiveness. I invited him in, conversed and prayed with him. He is now a very consistent member of he Church." Mr. Marsh has published several sermons. He is now living with his second wife, who was from Ashfield, and he has three children. iii.
