Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the Twelfth Congregational Society in Boston The other consideration was of a more gene ral character, but not without its influence. It was remembered that this Society had a peculiar origin; that it was one of the first-fruits of a very remarkable and interesting ecclesiastical movement; and that, for more than a third of a century, it maintained in itself a vigorous life, and took a creditable part in religious and chari table activities for which the city of Boston has been so highly distinguished. It was further remembered, that recently this Society had been brought to an unexpected close by the operation of causes which it was wholly unable to pre vent or counteract; and which causes were nu known to many, or, if known, not properly or fully understood.
