Lyman Beecher Course before the members of this Theological School, we
desire to express to you the satisfaction with which they have been
listened to, and we are glad to know that, by their publication in the
United States and Great Britain, the pleasure and profit which we have
all derived from their delivery will be enjoyed by a wider circle. TIMOTHY DWIGHT,

PREFACE
These nine Lectures on Preaching were delivered, on the Lyman Beecher
Foundation, to the divinity students of Yale University in the spring
of this year. With the kind concurrence of the Senate of Yale, five of
them were redelivered, on the Merrick Foundation, to the students of
Ohio Wesleyan University at Delaware, Ohio. In the Appendix an Ordination Address is reproduced, which I wrote
when I had been only four or five years in the ministry, and which I
have been requested to reprint. My friend, the Rev. Dr. Walker, who
was present when it was delivered, having published it in The Family
Treasury , another friend, noticing it there, had it printed as a
pamphlet at his own expense and distributed to all the ministers of
the Church to which he and I belong. It was a very characteristic act;
and I have ventured, as a memorial of it, to dedicate this volume to
him. I do so, however, not for this reason only, but also because
there has been no one in this generation who has done more than he has
done, by the example of his own impressive ministry and by his
generous encouragement of younger ministers, to promote the interests
of preaching in his native land. My thanks are due to the Rev. Charles Shaw, who on this as on former
occasions has kindly assisted me in correcting the press. GLASGOW, October 1st, 1891 .
