From 1855 to 186o he was pastor of a new Unitarian society in See also:Jersey See also:City, where he gave up the See also:Lord's Supper, thinking that it ministered to self-See also:satisfaction; and it was as a See also:radical Unitarian that he became pastor of another See also:young church in New See also:York City in 186o. Indeed in 1864 he was recognized as See also:leader of the radicals after his reply to Dr Hedge's address to the graduating students of the Divinity School on See also:Anti-Supernaturalism in the See also:Pulpit. In 1865, when he had practically given up " See also:transcendentalism," his church See also:building was sold and his See also:congregation began to See also:worship in Lyric See also:- HALL

It is a See also:mistake to say that he See also:grew more conservative in later years; but his See also:judgment grew r.ore generous and See also:catholic. He was a greater orator than See also:man of letters, and his sermons in New York were delivered to large audiences, averaging one thousand at the Masonic Temple, and were printed each See also:week; in eloquence and in the See also:charm of his spoken word he was probably surpassed in his See also:day by none See also:save See also:George See also:- WILLIAM
