CHAPTER III THE YOUNG MINISTER Seminary life at Newton -- Influence of Dr. Hackett -- Pastor of the Jamaica Plain Church -- Letters -- Called to Clarendon Street -- Criticism of Robertson on baptism -- The Church Unity Society examined THE time for special preparation for life-work had now arrived. In 1860 Gordon entered the theological school at Newton. Located on a commanding hilltop, the institution buildings afforded one a view of real beauty. An undulating country of meadow and pasture, not yet built over with the suburban villas of Boston merchants, stretched in all directions. The faint blue top of Monadnock could be descried in the north, while the flashing dome of the state-house sent its reflection into the west or summer afternoons. Contiguity to Boston brought the new-comer into new climates of opinion. Speculation and the standing discussions of New England were in the sixties, however, brushed aside by portentous public events. The nation was entering into the valley of darkness.

As he stands at the gates of the Common, an unending stream of torches pours past him over the historic slopes. He can think only of the vast musterings in Milton. We find him eagerly reading Gasparins new book, The Struggle of Christianity with Slavery, and later, with every one else in the. . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.<
