They include:Samuel Davies: 'Heroes Who Inspire'John Witherspoon: 'Principles of Greatness'Chauncey Whittlesey: 'Sowing and Reaping'William Smith: 'Consecrated to God'Barnabas Binney: 'On Religious Liberty'John Wheelock: 'The Value of Art'Josiah Stebbins: 'The Importance of Character'Paul Allen: 'The Call to Patriotism'Benjamin Allen: 'Battle for Truth'Timothy Dwight: 'The Folly of Intellectualism'David Tappan: 'A Discourse on Liberty'Jonathan Maxcy: 'Attack on Atheism'Otis Thompson: 'On Religion and Government'Asa Messer: 'In Defense of the Bible'Jedidiah Morse: 'A Faithful Guide'Ebenezer Fitch: 'Truth versus Reason'Tristam Burges: 'A Time to Fight'
