“[A Charge to the Newly Ordained, 1768.]” [1768] 16pp. [Acc. No. 991c]
Repository: University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC (South Caroliniana)
Bib. Ref.: 1 Tim: 4th: 16th: Take Heed unto Your Selves, and unto Your Doctrine:
continue in them: for in doing this you shall both save Your Selves, and them that
hear you.
Commentary: This charge is bound, with notes to two sermons, in a booklet in the
Oliver Hart Diaries 1752-1789, Box 3, folder 3. (See accession numbers 991, 991a,
and 991b). This charge forms pages 7-22 of the booklet also containing the two
sermons given on September 18, 1768. It has been resewn in the wrong order. Pages
21 and 22 are the first two pages of the charge. A few words are lost on pages 19
and approximately one quarter of page 20. The latter is likely the final page of the
charge, but there is a possibility that a final page(s) is missing due to the damage to
the bottom of page 20. The date 1768? is given to the charge because of the material
with which it is sewn.
