Excerpt from Old Salem in Lebanon: A History of the Congregation and Town This book is written in memory of the Departed Fathers of Old Salem. Its occasion is the present celebration of the centennial of the church edifice. My father, who served the congregation longer than any of her pastors, exceeding the term of Dr. Ernst by a few months, looked forward with eagerness to the coming celebration, which would have rounded out the 45th anniversary of his entrance into the ministry and the fifteenth year of our joint pastorate. He desired to begin work on this history already in last January, but I could not take it up then. He died unable to communicate his knowledge. George H. Reinoehl, who also was looking forward to this celebration, and who was an authority on church and town history, died a week earlier. These sudden deaths, together with my own illness, and other causes, rendered it necessary to postpone the anniversary from June 3d, to next Sunday, June 19th.
