To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
While some of the former re- garded the Board of Missions with distrust, charg- ing them as the abettors of slavery, and clamor- ously demanded a distinct denunciation of that 172 MEMOIR OF institution, and an entire separation from the southern churches ; many in the latter were de- nouncing the Board as ultra-abolition, and requir- ing some definite statement or act which would identify them officially with that obnoxious institu- tion. Public religious gatherings in all parts of the country ...were filled with exciting discussions upon this subject, and agitators, on either side, were passing among the churches, stirring up a spirit of opposition. Collections were much 'impeded, as many forgot, in the wild excitement, their obli- gations to give the Gospel to the heathen. It re- quired much watchfulness and wisdom, in these circumstances, to keep steadily before Christians the claims of a perishing world ; and in the midst of frequent and violent opposition, to mingle pa- tience and gentleness with that firmness which the crisis demanded.
