Description
Octavo (in 4's) paper covers 30pp - very slight toning (SABIN 6423 lists only 2 locations Harvard & Philadelphia Library). *An uplifting sermon but somewhat intolerant in asserting that "The Professors of this Institution .. are at perfect liberty to renounce these opinions .. but in that case, they are bound, as honest and honourable men, to relinquish their present station". Porter was later appointed President of the Andover Theological Seminary, which shared its campus with Phillips Academy, and was founded in 1807 by orthodox Calvinists who had fled Harvard College after it appointed a liberal Unitarian theologian to a professorship of divinity. The Seminary was independent from Phillips Academy but shared the same board of directors (Wikipedia).
