Excerpt from Remains of the Late Rev. Asahel Nettleton: Consisting of Sermons, Outlines and Plans of Sermons, Brief Observations on d104s of Scripture, and Miscellaneous Remarks In perusing these sketches, multitudes will be reminded of the solemn period in their history, when these very dis courses were to them the power of God unto salvation. They will perceive, of course, that many of them are only outlines of the sermons as they were preached; but they will find in them many things which they will doubtless recollect. Some of these outlines of sermons were found among the manuscripts of Dr. N ettleton. Quite a number of them, however, were taken from his lips, and written at the time, during his last sickness. It is proper that the reader should be apprized, that what is here exhibited will give but an imperfect view of the character of Dr. Nettleton's preaching; for many of his most impressive sermons, and parts of sermons, were never com mitted to writing. And besides, there was much in his manner of delivery, that gave interest and efficacy to his preaching, of which nothing can be learned by reading his discourses.
