Diligent and Unwearied in the Discharge of His Pastoral Duties: The 1805 Diary of the Rev. Dr. James Muir, Minister of the Old Presbyterian Meeting House in Alexandria, Virginia
Description:This is an annotated transcription of the Rev. Dr. James Muir’s personal diary from 1805. Born in Ayrshire, Scotland in 1757, Rev.

The Old Presbyterian Meeting House was originally known as Alexandria’s Presbyterian Church and then as its First Presbyterian Church. Rev.

It also provides a historical guide to aspects of the remarkable heritage that continues to this day in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia; a heritage that exists today in the vibrant religious community of the Old Presbyterian Meeting House and in the larger community, where the streets that Muir walked, and so many of the houses and places he visited still exist. A discussion of Alexandria in 1805, an examination of the original diary and its transcription, and a biographical sketch of Rev. Muir precede the diary. Appendices the diary’s title page and handwritten notes that appear on end pages of the diary, a list of the Bible texts of sermons by Rev. Dr. Muir during 1805 (in the order delivered), and a list of the published works of the Rev. Muir.
