FORMER SABBATH SENTIMENTS.
My former Sabbath sentiments were formed according to the Puritan model. While a child, I learned Sutcliff's and Watts' Catechisms, in both of which it is taught, that the ten commandments are a rule of life to good men; and traditionally I was taught, that the Sabbath was changed from the seventh to the first day of the week in honor of the resurrection of Christ; and I fully believed this was confirmed by the various references to the first day contained in the New Testament.
