Emmons and President Edwards, and men who, aiming after the real, despised the form, kept no order, and revered no ceremony; yet all flourished in peace, and were allowed to do their work in their own way. We find here and there records of pleasant little encounters of humor among them on these points.
We have been very anxious since the operation, she had so little strength to rally with. But now if she keeps on as well as this you will have her home again in a little while. The doctors say three weeks. She is the patientest patient in the ward. Yours very truly, Sara Ellen Nesbitt, Nurse" Ward A, Emmons Hospital That was the letter. Rebecca Mary's face grew a little whiter at every line of it.
Both West and Smalley trained students for the ministry. The latter was the teacher of Nathaniel Emmons. Smalley was settled in what is now New Britain, Conn., from 1757-1820. Apart from his influence upon the development of doctrine, he did more than any other man to bring back the early independence of the churches and to create the Congregational polity of the present day.

It has no living oracles left; and its memory survives only in the doctrinal treatises of the elder and younger Edwards, Hopkins, Bellamy, and Emmons. It is no part of our present purpose to discuss the merits of the system in question.
When the effervescent liquid foamed and fizzed, Ralph stared in amazement. "Must I drink it?" he faltered, noticing the ease with which Emmons swallowed his. "Of course, you must. Did you think it was to wash with?" Ralph afterward averred that it tasted better than it sounded, but again pondered over the to him increasing mysteries of civilization.
They felt as if they ought to treat him nicely, he being a newcomer and all of them being very familiar with the ropes; and Emmons, the class president, started explaining to him that it was all a mistake. Scroggs bit him off with a voice that sounded like a terrier snapping at a fly. "We're here to correct these mistakes," he said.
