Excerpt from Baccalaureate Sermons, and Occasional Discourses The word 'hero, ' does not occur in the Bible. Nothing can be more opposite to its spirit than that self-sufficiency, and recklessness of human rights and sufferings, which arc commonly associated with this term. Still, there are no higher examples of a true heroism than the Bible presents. In the text, and the chapter from which it is taken, we have an account of great and heroic exploits, performed indeed in ancient times, but such as we should be glad to see emulated, such as ought to be emulated in the midst of the light and advantages of our day. We have a right to expect, as the stream of time rolls on and pours its accumulated wealth at the feet of new generations, that there shall not only be an increase in the knowledge of nature, but that there shall be, at least, no failure in the breadth and compass of a comprehensive wisdom, or in the might of a true manhood that is ready to do and to suffer in the cause of humanity and of God.

Excerpt from Baccalaureate Sermons But why has the Creator thus set us apart from one another and given us such diverse endowments? Is it not to make monotony impossible? Is not our individual ity given us as a charge to keep? Let it not be surren dered at the bidding of any, nor stolen away while we sleep. We but serve our common humanity when we hold our rightful God-given place, when we fill up the deficiencies of one another by using the powers which God has given in the field which God has assigned. There is a proper assertion of one's individuality and of this Nehemiah gives us a right noble example. Sensible of the responsibility of his high position and conscious of his own powers he consulted with himself how he should act in this trying hour. He belonged to himself and had not submitted himself to the keeping of another. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Occasional Sermons and Addresses A number of the discourses contained in this volume have been previously in print. In publishing them with others the author has yielded to the request of friends, in whose judgment he has entire confidence. In this more permanent form it is hoped they may subserve the interests of education and true religion. The titles and the occasions on which they were deliv ered will sufficiently indicate their character. The author regrets that the pressure of public duties has not permitted him to give to these pages that thorough revision which would render the volume more worthy the attention of those who take an interest in these.

Excerpt from Baccalaureate Sermon If we can face our real speaker this morning with the calm intelligence of reason, if we can meet his religious faith with faith that is the same in kind and if we can understand the universal language of the human spirit, we will not be hindered by separation in time and space or by differences in national life and civilization but will perceive the lines of his thinking, the logic of his life and the conclusions of a master mind.

Excerpt from The Very Elect: Baccalaureate Sermons and Occasional Addresses Matthew Henry Buckham, D.D. LL. D Matthew henry buckham came from England with his parents when but an infant. His destiny seems to have been foreshadowed in his birth, which occurred on the fourth of July, 1832. His father was an Independent, or Congregational minister, who sometimes added to his small stipend and his practical usefulness by conducting a private school. Matthew entered college at the age Of fifteen, with an admirable grounding, received from his father, in all the subjects which a freshman should know. At the age Of nineteen he took his first degree, winning the highest honors Of a class many Of whom were five to eight years his seniors. For two years he was headmaster Of the Old academy at Lenox, Mass. Then tutor in languages for a year at Burlington. Two years were next given to study and research abroad, chiefly at University College, London. Upon his return (in 1856) he accepted a temporary position on the teaching staff of the University Of Vermont as professor Of English Liter ature, and the year following was made professor Of Greek. In 1863 he took up again the duties Of the chair Of Rhetoric and English Literature, and continued in charge Of both departments till 1871, when President Angell's resignation opened the way for his promotion to the presidency. At his death, 29 November, 1910, he had already well begun his fortieth year of oversight and direction, and was accounted the Dean Of American college presidents. As an instructor Professor Buckham was admirably equipped for his work. His scholarship was accurate, his memory held fast whatever his wide reading had gathered. His taste in English Literature and his skill in the use Of his mother tongue made his example in the lecture room Of even more value than his formal precepts and criticism.
