137 tins year has been without cost to the Board. " Such was the generous devotion with which he gave himself to this work, that in 1831 the Board placed upon their record a resolution expressive of their gratitude for his disinterested and holy zeal. The providence of God now evidently called him to devote his undivided energies to the home work of missions. His sound judgment, the veneration widely felt for his godly character, and the holy enthusiasm he awakened everywhere in the mis- sionar...y enterprise, all eminently adapted him to arouse the slumbering zeal of the churches in the effort to give the Gospel to the heathen world. But the loved church over which he had so long presided lay near his heart. The thought of dis- solving the pastoral relation was one of painful interest. Most of its members had first gained their hopes of heaven under the word of life minis- tered by him; they now clung around him as their father in the Gospel. It was an occasion of deep emotion when the revered pastor laid before them the communication of the Board, pro- posing a permanent separation from his people, and the devotion of his remaining days to the in- terests of foreign missions.
