PHILADELPHIA •>. , , > 3 OF TWICE in the course of my life have I been in thecity of London, and though I may never go there again,it will ever remain in my mind as a bewilderingcollection of houses and shops. I shall think of it aseven more of a wil-derness than can befound in this land ofAmerica, where, bythe grace of God, Icount to spend theremainder of the daysallotted me on thisearth in thankful-ness, because ofhaving been num-bered among thosewho began the build-ing of the city PROPERTY OF 10 STEPHEN OF PHILADELPHIA ,I am told that among the settlements laid out by the Massachusetts Bay Colony, is one called Salem, whichmeans peace, and verily it is a fitting name for a townwhere the people desire the peace cf this world morethan anything to be hoped for, save that peace whichpasseth all understanding. But to my mind, the name of our town, Philadelphia,goes way beyond that of Salem, for its meaning isbrotherly love, and if such be practised among us,then does it follow that peace will come without aquestion, since love driveth out fear, and the absenceof fear is the peace of this world. MY OWN NAME It is a long distance from London in England toour Philadelphia in America, and if I am to show, as is my purpose, how my visit to thelarger city led me to help build upthe smaller, then is it wise that Iexplain somewhat concerning my-self, even though those who shallread what I here set down, haveno care whatsoever
