Sermons and Addresses, 1860-1918, undated
Scope and Contents
These include sermons Wright gave during his time as an active minister and later as a visiting preacher at various churches, primarily in Ohio. The sermons include Wright’s reflections on particular texts and cover subjects such as the immortality of God and divine revelation. Wright numbered his sermons and recorded the dates and places where he gave them and his addresses. A bound volume contains skeletons of the sermons Wright preached at the Gustavus revival of 1860-61; this volume also includes records for the students Wright taught in Gustavus, in 1860. The addresses document Wright’s career as a well-known lecturer and include addresses about geological subjects and about Wright’s travels, particularly in Asia. The sermons and addresses are arranged chronologically; sermons that Wright gave in more than one church are filed under the earliest date noted. Undated material is arranged alphabetically at the end. See Series X for lecture advertisements and programs.
