A Good Old Age is a sermon delivered by Ezra Stiles Gannett in the Federal Street Meetinghouse in Boston on January 24, 1847. The sermon was occasioned by the death of John Davis, and it focuses on the idea of living a good life and having a peaceful death. Gannett explores the concept of a good old age and what it means to live a life of virtue and fulfillment. He uses John Davis as an example of someone who lived a good life and died with dignity. Gannett's sermon is a reflection on mortality and the importance of living a life that is meaningful and fulfilling. It is a thought-provoking and inspiring work that offers insights into the human condition and the nature of death.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
