Description
A collection of Reverend Rev Walter Clarence Hargrave's Sermons.
Rev. Hargrave, an African American teacher and pastor from East Tennessee, delivered these sermons at multiple locations during his pastoral career. He delivered many speeches over the East Tennessee area; some of which have been collected here. He also served as the longest pastor at the time at Bethel Presbyterian in Dandridge, Tennessee as well as serving at St. Luke’s in New Market, Tennessee and Rice Presbyterian Church.
One of Rev. Hargrave's largest contributions to African American history was the extensive documentation of his daily living and his sermons. That documentation provides a way for individuals to observe the daily and religious life of African Americans in rural Appalachia.
