Jacob Cushing 1730-1809 was born in Shrewsbury Massachusetts and graduated from Harvard in 1748. He was ordained in Waltham Massachusetts and became the pastor there in 1752. During the Revolutionary War he served as scribe of the State Convention of the Clergy. Like some of his other sermons this is a somewhat scarce title however he did publish a number of sermons between 1764-1798. This is also appears to be an unusual copy as both Evans and Sabin indicate 39 pages in their listing but this copy has only 30. However the sermon winds down on page 30 and The End is clearly indicated on the bottom of the page. Unclear if there were any subsequent additional pages which would account for the difference. Harvard Online Library. Evans 10275. Sabin 18107. Thomas & John Fleet books
