of human knowledge. Buckminster realized Norton's idea of a learned and able theologian—disciplined in habits of correct reasoning—[and] informed by extensive learning. Norton seems to have laid upon himself the task of continuing the work that his admired friend had died too young to do. Hearing Buckminster, said Norton, one seemed to be walking in the triumphal procession of Truth. Despite warning and opposition, then, liberal Christianity continued to flourish, until in 1805 the Rev. Henry Ware, an outspoken Unitarian, was appointed to the Hollis Professorship of Divinity in Harvard College. This invasion of the school whose initial purpose had been the production of Congregational ministers roused the Congregationalists of every shade of opinion to the defence of their discipline; and from extreme Hopkinsians to moderate Calvinists, they combined to establish at Andover a new theological seminary, which was opened in 808.

Home production arose through the desire for suitable Sunday reading. Our first juvenile books were by preachers or their maiden relatives. The Rev. Henry Ware asked Miss Sedgwick in 1834, at the height of her popularity, for narratives between a tale and a tract, which should provide illustrations of Christianity. The demands of her audience may be guessed from a letter entreating her to change a game of marbles to kite-flying, because marbles are immoral as by betting they involve an appeal to God. This is perhaps an extreme application of the prescription of the Sunday School Union that their tales must avoid even the most indirect insi
