Excerpt from Death in the Sight of All the People: A Sermon on the Death of President Garfield, Preached in Broadway Tabernacle, New York, September 28, 1881 Dear Sir: A sermon like that preached by you yesterday, upon the death of President Garfield, should have a wider and more abiding influence than if preserved only in the memory of those who heard it. Those who had that privilege desire the sermon in a permanent form, and many others would be glad to profit by your eloquent and instructive words in this time of sorrow. In asking for the publication of the sermon we are but uttering the unanimous wish of your Church and Congregation. We are, Dear Sir, Yours most truly, Hubbard Beebe, Caleb B. Knevals, Thomas W. Whittemore. La Fayette Ranney, John J. Sinclair, William D. Moore, John H. Washburn, A. H. Clapp. Rev. Hubbard Beebe, and others: Dear Brethren: The sermon to which you refer was written without any idea of its publication through the press, and was the simple outgush of my heart under the nation's sorrow. But since you consider it worthy of permanent preservation and general circulation, I very cheerfully place the manuscript at your disposal. I am. Your affectionate Pastor, Wm. M. Taylor.
