Similar are the mournful accounts of Glastonbury : " impene- trable gloom . . . house of God in great measure forsaken . . . family worship neglected and experimental religion by many treated with contempt," are terms used. In Lebanon conditions were gloomy: errors and immorality gained ground. To many who professed to believe the Scriptures, the fundamental doctrines of religion were disgustful. Family religion was very unfashionable. The house of God was much forsaken on the Sabbath, and when
... a lecture was preached on another day, the preacher saw little else than empty pews. Youth spent much time at balls, which were encouraged by many of the old. It seemed that unless God should interpose, the love of the blessed Jesus would very soon cease to be publicly TKe Later Religious Life 369 commemorated, and the enemies of God would soon rejoice in the extirpation of even the forms of religion: Such accounts as these could be given of many other towns.
Another depressing element in the condition of affairs was the use of intoxicants: ordinations, church-dedications, donation-parties, and pastoral calls were scarcely sacred with- out the beloved flip; barn-raisings, corn-huskings and elec- tions were lacking in charm if Santa Cruz did not preside.
