    Notes:

    (Medical):"On Saturday evening, August 12, 1876, a destructive store and downpour of rain swept over middle Maryland for hours. Late in the evening Leonard Emmert and his son David, rode out on the farm. Destruction was seen on every side. In the midst of the excitement a pain struck the father in the region of his heart. David helped him on his horse and rode beside him back to the house. Forty-five minutes later he called his family around his bed. They saw he wanted to seak and, finally, with a smile flooding his saintly face, he said in quiet tones, 'Oh, what a blessed thing it is to be prepared to die,' and he slept with his fathers."

    Death:
    Last words, "Oh, What a blessed thing it is to be prepared to die."

    Story:
    "He was elected to the ministry before he was twenty-two years old and preached faithfully until his death."

    "He was a minister of strong conviction against war and intemperance. He was bold and fearless in the pulpit against these evils. He preached relentlessly against human slavery. Many times before the Civil War hes life was threatened. He got many letters threatening to burn his buildings, kidnap his children, or hang him up to some oak tree on his farm, but this prophet of God was not daunted by threats when evil surrounded him.

    When John Brown came to Maryland and Virginia and organized his anti-slavery groups, he visited Leonard Emmert - and other ministers of the Church of the Brethren - and laid out his plans to free the slaves from their masters. These pious people hated the system of slavery but to their everlasting credit they refused to believe "that violence and exercise of force were God's ways of correcting evil." These words just quoted were from the pious lips of that saint and servant of God, Leonard Emmert, in his answer to the plans of John Brown."
