1761rif. 8806Boston: Edes and Gill 1761. Disbound. Good binding. Octavo. 35 1 pp. First edition. Removed from volume. 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. Rare in commerce. Evans 8878; Sabin 30884; ESTC W29372. Edes and Gill unknown
1769rif. 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.
