E. B. Foster preached the Gospel with eminent power and persuasiveness. His labors as a student were almost unparalleled ; he toiled from morn till noon, from noon till twilight, from twilight till midnight. From Sabbath to Sabbath, he brought " beaten oil " into the sanctuary. He was instructed unto the kingdom of heaven, bringing forth out of his treasure, things new and old. It was his custom, in those days, to prepare four written discourses per week, two for each Sabbath, and two for weekl...y evening lectures. He kept pace with the pressing public questions of the day ; preached upon many reformatory and social problems. He threw himself into this work with rare self-forgetfulness. He counted not his life dear unto him. There are some here who have sent for him at midnight, to come and administer consolation to the dying and the bereaved. Many have been the hours he has spent with those outside of his own parish, who have sought his ministrations. Truly could he say with Paul, " I seek not yours, but yow." Completely prostrated by excessive toil, he was compelled to retire from the pastorate, July 23, 1861.
