博客來A commemorative sermon delivered by Richard Varick Dey in 1825, ＂A Discourse, Delivered in the Middle Dutch Church in Cedar-Street, N.Y. on Sabbath Evening, June 12th, 1825, on Occasion of the Death of Mrs. Mary Laidlie,＂ offers a glimpse into the religious and social customs of early 19th-century New York. Dey’s oration reflects upon the life and passing of Mrs. Laidlie, likely a prominent member of the Middle Dutch Church. This historical document provides insight into the eulogistic traditions of the time, the role of the church in community life, and the theological perspectives on death and mourning prevalent during this era. The sermon is a valuable resource for researchers interested in religious history, social history, and the history of New York City.
