Consolation in Life and Death, by John Church 58048 [Subtitle: derived from the Life of Christ] [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/5/8/0/4/58048 ] [Files: 58048-0.txt; 58048-h.htm] For those wishing to know: a funeral sermon preached by John Church (c1780-1826?) in 1819 when one of his congregation, Mrs. Turner, died. Despite the title it's nothing to do with the actual life of Christ, but instead some fairly abstract theological points, together with points about Mrs. Turner's death. What's interesting is the hymn at the end is signed "J. C. jun." - presumably John Church's son? All the best, David, Rainy England
