THE ADDRESS IN THE MARRIAGE CEREMONY USED BY REV. SAMUEL WILSON.
"Regular publication has been made of these persons intending to join in the near relation of husband and wife.
No objections have yet been made. I now call upon any person, who has any such to make, that he now speak, or forever hold his peace. We find no objec- tions from without, but as it has been the custom of our church, in the solemnization of marriage, to put it seriously to the persons themselves, whether they know any cause, either by previous contract, or otherwise, why they may not be joined together in the near rela- tion, that they declare it. It is true, such contracts do not bind in law, but it is as true, that they do bind conscience, and persons ought seriously to consider such matters before they violate them. Persons may con- sider such questions improper, as it is not likely that they came publicly to declare these things, but consider these are matters in which conscience alone is concerned, and if persons will injure themselves, it is no reason why those who are authorized to solemnize marriage
62

should not faithfully discharge their duty. I then ask you sir, whether you know any lawful reason, why you may not be joined in marriage to this woman who stands on your left hand-do you know any reason ? Do you know madam, any lawful reason, why you may not be joined in marriage to this man, who stands upon your right hand-Do you know any reason ? Mar- riage is an early institution of God's own appointment; it took place between our first parents in a state of inno- cence, and therefore, is said to be honorable in all, and the bed undefiled, but whoremongers and adulterers, God will judge. Marriage is to be between one man and one woman, and there are certain degrees of con- sanguinity, which have been generally forbidden. The equal proportion of the different sexes forbids polyg- amy, or having more wives than one; the males in every age being to the females, as thirteen to twelve, or twenty to nineteen, as though infinite wisdom had so ordered it, that overplus of males, should make their deficiency by war and other dangerous occupations.
Although the form of marriage has varied in every age and nation, yet the essential part of it appears to be the consent of the parties, declared before witnesses; private consent, of whatever kind or nature it may be, will never come higher than a contract, and in conse- quence will not bind in law.
The design of marriage is, that fornication may be avoided, and as our race is more dignified than the lower creations, so then, our passions should be regu- lated by reason and religion. It is likewise intended for producing a legitimate offspring, and a seed for the church. There are duties incumbent upon those who

enter this relation, some of them are equally binding upon both parties, some upon one party, some upon the other. First, it is equally binding upon you both, to love each others' persons, to avoid freedom with all others, which formerly might have been excusable, to keep each others' lawful secrets, fidelity to the marriage bed, and if God shall give you an offspring, it will be mutually binding upon you both, to consult their spirit- ual, as well as their temporal concerns. Secondly, it will be particularly binding upon you, sir, who is to be the head of the family, to maintain the authority which God hath given you. In every society there must be a head, and in families, by divine authority, this is given to the man, but as woman was given to man for an helpmeet and a bosom companion, you are not to treat this woman in a tyranical manner, much less as a slave, but to love and kindly entreat her, as becomes you towards one so nearly allied to you. The relation is so near, that a man is said to leave father and mother and cleave to his wife, and the twain shall be one flesh, and to show that love is due to such, it is added, no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourisheth and cherisheth it. Lastly, it is incumbent upon you, madam, who is to be the wife, to acknowledge the authority of him who is to be your husband, and for this, you have the example of Sarah, who is commended for calling Abra- ham Lord.
It seems to be your privilege in matters in which you and he cannot agree, that you advise with him, endeav- oring in an easy way, by persuasion, to gain him to your side; but if you cannot in this way gain your point, it is fit and proper that you submit in matters

in which conscience is not concerned. It will be your duty in a particular manner, to use good economy in regard to those things which may be placed in your hands. In a word, you are to be industrious in your place and station."
THE PASTORATE OF REV. JOSHUA WIL- LIAMS, D. D.
After the death of Rev. Samuel Wilson, and before the settlement of Rev. Joshua Williams, we find the pulpit was supplied by the following clergymen: Revs. Robert Wilson, Thomas Greer, P. Davidson, Matthew Brown, Mr. Burck, William Wilson, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Linn, Mr. Herron, Samuel Waugh, Mr. Kennedy, Dr. Cooper, Mr. Williams, and Robert Logan. The preaching of the latter seems to have pleased the con- gregation, as a subscription paper was circulated in 1800, with a view of raising salary and giving him a call. Whether a call was extended or not, we have been unable to find. A call was extended to Rev. Joshua Williams, then pastor of the churches of Derry and Paxton, which was accepted. He was installed April 14, 1802. Dr. Williams' ministry of twenty- seven years, was one of uninterrupted harmony and kindly feeling, between pastor and people, as usually attends the ministrations of an able preacher and a faithful pastor. In this congregation, he married 360 couples. On the marriage of John Scouller and Jane Brown, April 4, 1809, the bans were published the last time in the Big Spring Church. He baptized six hun- dred and seventy-four children, and admitted four hun- dred and fifty-two persons to the communion of the

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
church. During the latter part of his ministry, the use of tokens were dispensed with at communion. In 1817, the first Sabbath school was organized in the church as a union school. Its organization was largely due to the efforts of John Moor, who afterwards became superintendent, in which capacity he served for a num- ber of years. For several years, during the ministry of Dr. Williams, James Work was clerk or leader of the singing. He acted as such, at least from 1817 to 1824, at a salary of twenty-five dollars per annum. At a later date, John Davidson was precentor. In 1829, Dr. Williams severed his connection as pastor of the church owing to failure of health.
