Embro and Zorra Re-Union, Ontario, Canada, August 1st to 4th, 1909: Memorial Sermon Preached on the Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of the Arrival of the Reverend Donald Mackenzie (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Excerpt from Embro and Zorra Re-Union, Ontario, Canada, August 1st to 4th, 1909: Memorial Sermon Preached on the Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of the Arrival of the Reverend Donald Mackenzie
As one of the oldest surviving associates of the late Reverend Donald MacKenzie, I endorse with great pleasure and appreciation the tribute paid to his memory and worth in the Memorial Sermon which follows.
The delicate and difficult task which his son, the Reverend Doctor MacKenzie, President of Elmira College, was requested to undertake, has been performed with admirable appropriateness, beauty of diction and good taste.
In the year 1856, I became a co-presbyter with Zorra's great pastor in the old Presbytery of London, and from that date to the time of his death in 1884, I was in close association and intimate friend ship with him. He was ever marked by dignity of manner, a high sense of honor, and possessed a most companionable spirit. But it was in the pulpit he shone at his best. In opening up the mysteries of the kingdom, and setting forth the unsearchable riches of Christ, his soul became fired with the grandeur of the great redemption, and his own exalt ed privilege and obligation of beseeching men to be reconciled to God.
His impress on Zorra will long survive. A halo of veneration encircles his name in the memory of the people, and the remarkable number of ministers and professional men who have gone out from Zorra into all parts, not only of this continent, but of the world, have carried something of that impress with them wherever they have gone.
