Insect spotting to the half title and blank verso of the last leaf; early moisture staining to the contents. Contemporary owner name of Benjamin Parrott dated 1761 on the verso of the title page. Perhaps the same born in Lynn Essex County MA around 1740. Haven was a long-serving minister at the First Church in Dedham MA. Known as a capable orator he was frequently offered invitations to sermons and addresses as in this instance a sermon before the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company in Boston to date the oldest chartered military organization in North America. Haven preaches on temperance of spirit and self-control in the face of anger an interesting and salient subject for a military organization particularly in light of the ongoing French and Indian War. Haven uses as an exemplar the late George II and his "surprising firmness of mind in his close attention to and vigorous support of the present war; and that at a time when his flow of spirit might be supposed greatly abated by the infirmities of age; yet so susceptible was his heart of the softer passions that he always prefered sic peace to war when it could be obtained up terms honorable to his crown" p. 23.

1769ref. 41680Boston: New-England: Richard Draper 1769. 55 1 blank pp but lacking the half title. Disbound with widely scattered foxing. Good. This election sermon is an important illustration of the growing colonial resentment of Parliamentary abuses of power. Haven pastor of the First Church in Dedham subscribes to the 'natural rights' and 'social compact' theory of government. "By forming into civil society men do indeed give up some of their natural rights; but it is in prospect of a rich compensation in the better security of the rest and in the enjoyment of several additional ones that flow from the constitution of government." Despite the different types of government "the natural rights of the people.are the same under every form of government." He quotes "the great Mr. Locke" on the duty of the people to oppose tyranny and asserts that the colonists are justifiably apprehensive about Parliament's excessive assertions of authority most recently expressed in the Townshend Acts.

1769ref. 027732Boston: Printed By Richard Draper Printer of His Excellency the Governor 1769. Octavo. 55 pages. The Rev. Jason Haven was a graduate of Harvard and a longtime pastor of the First Church of Dedham. He was initially most famous for requiring those guilty of fortification before the entire congregation and confess their misdeeds. In this sermon that was preached before the Great and General Court of Massachusetts in 1769 he spoke often in favor of the rights of Americans often quoting John Locke. Here was an open cry against the acts of Parliament: "People indeed apprehend some of their most important civil rights and privileges to be in great danger; and that several of them cannot be enjoyed under the execution of certain acts presumably the Townsend Acts of 1767 with the sending of British troops in 1768 to enforce them in 1768 lately passed in the Parliament of Great Britain." Since this was preached before the authorities of the Massachusetts Great and General Court it would have been heard by John Adams as well as those who represented Great Britain.
