Excerpt from Memorial Addresses on the Life and Character of Joshua S. Salmon (Late a Representative From New Jersey): Delivered in the House of Representatives and Senate, Fifty-Seventh Congress, First Session Proceedings in the house May 6, 1902. The Chaplain, Rev. Henry N. Couden, D. D., offered the following prayer: We bless Thee, Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, for life and all its rich and varied endowments, and we most fervently pray that we, as individuals, may use our life and the gifts which Thou has bestowed upon us to the highest and noblest purposes, that righteousness, peace, and love may prevail. With painstaking and industry, help us to "work while it is yet day; for the night cometh, when no man can work." Surely the angel of death, the reaper, has been busy among us. A third desk draped with the emblems of mourning tells us of another visit, leaving our hearts desolate; and oh, Heavenly Father, we most humbly pray that Thy comfort may come to the bereaved wife and all the friends who were near and dear to him. Help us, our Heavenly Father, to be impressed with these lessons, that our lives may be pure and ready when the summons comes to pass over the river; and Thine shall be the praise, in the name of Christ the Lord. Amen. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
