A sermon preached to a country congregation : In order to promote unity in the civil, or common concerns of life. More particularly to reconcile the people to the new stile; and to the observance of Christmas-Day, and other solemn festivals, at the times on which they are now appointed to be kept. And to remove also the disagreement, which of late has happened about the time of observing the feast of the dedication of their churches, commonly called their wakes.
