Philadelphia [183-?]. Engraving, 10.6 x cm. on sheet 19.3 x cm. "Dagd. by H. L. Smith. Engd. by J. Sarain, Phila." Probably cut from his book "The Evidences of Christianity, in Their External, or Historical, Division, Exhibited in a Course of Lectures". M'Ilvaine was chaplain of West Point from 1825 to 1828, when he resigned on the last day of that year. "The office of a Bishop does not give the happiness which that of a Pastor affords. I long to see some fruits of my ministry, and that my labors are bringing souls to Christ." Engraving shows white-tonsured M'Ilvaine facing half right, hand inside vest in standard Napoleonic pose; wearing black coat, vest, white collar. stock#32361 (mvo).
