Up for sale is a fantastic lot of more than 3 dozen lengthy hand written sermons by Daniel Hauer (1806 - 1901) whose bio I have pasted below.  Very few of these are dated but almost if not all of them date  the late 1820's through the mid 1830's when a couple of them are dated. These would make them probably among his earliest sermons.  One is in German the others in English.  Below are partial titles and number of pages of each sermon.  Page numbers dont necessarily show the length of the sermons as some are on larger pages and some written in very small handwriting. Pages generally are 4 x 6 through 6 x 8 with some variance.  Page numbers indicate last page that was written on but not necessarily filled. All are readable and in generally good condition with the exception of one incomplete sermon and this is labeled in the brief note next to it.  Handwriting is very good and some of the writing is microscopic. All writing in pen.  Contents of sermons vary. Some are general sermons a couple appear to be said at a funeral or remembrance etc..  A remarkable lot written by a well known preacher who, at the time of his death was thought to be the longest serving clergyman in the country.  Please email with questions and see my store for other great items.

Reverend  Daniel Jacob Hauer was born in Frederick, Maryland on March 3, 1806. He pursued classical and mathematical studies in Frederick College. He began studying theology under Dr. Schaeffer in 1823, and was licensed by the Synod of Maryland and Virginia in 1826 (the year that Gettysburg Seminary was founded). He accepted a call to congregations in North Carolina, and served congregations in North Carolina and southwest Virginia, and was a founding member of the Virginia Synod in 1829 (when Virginia and Maryland decided, amiably, to form separate synods). He also made frequent missionary tours into western Virginia (now the state of West Virginia), which may have been one of the reasons that Hauer was known as "The Home Missionary of the East." In 1832 he accepted a call to Lovettsville..When Sackman (previous reverend) resigned in 1830, the number of communicants per quarter had dropped from over one hundred, to as low as nineteen or even twelve. Under the short pastorate of Abraham Reck, who apparently used English in 1831-32, the number of communicants ranged from 64 to 88. For Daniel Hauer's first celebration of communion—remember, communion was quarterly in those days— in Sept. 1832, he registered 107 communicants. By August of 1835, the number was 203, and hit a high of 220 in 1837—plus many more who didn't leave their names, Hauer noted. That's not all that Hauer accomplished in his first few years here. The first parsonage was built in 1833, suggesting that he was our first full-time resident pastor, the first who wasn't part of the Frederick or Middletown charge. Indeed, he created a "Lovettsville charge," adding St. Paul's in Between-the-Hills to his responsibilities. (Pastor Ivan Ives, our supply pastor today, was involved in the transfer of St. Paul's ten to fifteen year ago, and we will have Roland England from St. Paul's preaching here in two weeks.) Reverand Hauer began services in the Between-the-Hills neighborhood in 1833, and organized the St. Paul's congregation there in 1834. He also organized the school and church at Shinar (now Zion) in Morrisonville in 1835. Pastor Hauer also organized the Sunday School here, and a Missionary Society. And, as we have noted, he quickly organizing the building of a new church building, after the Old Stone Church collapsed in a snow-storm in January 1839. There was an issue in the Maryland Synod when Hauer—a member of the Virginia Synod— came here in 1832. In that year's convention, he was admitted as an advisory member. In the 1833 Maryland convention, there was clearly some controversy over Hauer. Synod President David Schaeffer reported that he had declared Hauer a member of the Maryland Synod, but his action had been annulled. Schaeffer called for a reconsideration, noting that Hauer had recently preached at a number of Maryland congregations, including Boonsboro and Sharpsburg. Schaeffer declared the principle that whenever a church connected with this Synod calls a minister from another Synod that he, as a matter of course, becomes a member of this Synod. Schaeffer apparently prevailed, because Hauer was admitted to the Maryland Synod in 1834, and became a very active member of that Synod. His reports to the Synod show a steady growth: in 1835 he reported 349 total communicants (this is probably a yearly figure, not the quarterly figure we cited earlier), among two congregations, plus one school. In 1837, he reported 380 communications among the two congregations, plus 160 "scholars" (students), and twenty-four teachers. Hauer remarked: "That the preaching of the gospel, and the regular administration of its ordinances, are wellattended; the benevolent institutions of the church are supported; and during the last two years, God has graciously poured out his spirit upon these congregations, and we have reason to believe that many have been converted and the people of God greatly revived." He also reported five prayer meetings, and general prosperity in his church, starting "for the past two years, God has graciously poured out his spirit, revived his people, and brought many from darkness to light, and from sin and Satan unto God." In 1842, Hauer reported to the Synod: "During the year the Lord has poured out his spirit on the congregations of the Lovettsville charge. Conversions have been numerous. Prayer-meetings are frequent and well attended. The Sabbath Schools flourishing and the cause of vital piety on the advance." In 1843, Hauer's next-to-last year here, he reported 416 communicants, and 125 scholars. During his time in the Lovettsville charge, Reverand Hauer baptized 1,000 children, and confirmed more than 500 persons. In August of 1845, he accepted a call to St. Paul's in Jefferson, Maryland, where his charge included Burkittsville, Mt. Zion, and St. Matthews at Carroll's Manor. Seven years later, he accepted a call to Manchester, Maryland, and after that he served in Adams County, Pennsylvania, and ultimately served out his years in Hanover, Pennsylvania. Reverand Hauer's dealings with New Jerusalem (and, by the way, I believe he was the one who gave us the name "New Jerusalem"—it first appears in the church register when he comes here) continued after he left. I just discovered this past week that New Jerusalem actually joined the breakaway Melanchthon Synod in 1858, during the short pastorate of J.B. Anthony who served here during 1858 and 1859. Hauer was a member of the founding convention of the Melanchthon Synod in 1857. In 1858, J.B. Anthony from Lovettsville was accepted as a member of that synod. In the 1860 Convention, when Hauer was president of the Melanchthon Synod, he reported that J.B. Anthony had resigned from the Lovettsville charge in December 1859 and was moving south. Hauer reported that the Lovettsville congregation had called Xenophon Richardson of the Virginia Synod, "who is now laboring in their midst." Reverand Hauer stayed active for decades, apparently right up until his death in 1901 at 75 years of age. In fact he was rostered as a Lutheran pastor for 75 years! In 1879, the Virginia Synod celebrated its 50th anniversary at Woodstock, Virginia, and Daniel Hauer travelled to Woodstock from Hanover to deliver an address. Shortly before his death, the West Pennsylvania Synod looked into the matter, and concluded that Hauer was the longest-serving clergyman in this country, if not in the entire world!
