Life By Faith - Alexander Taggart McGill
The surnames of Alexander, Miller, Hodge, and Warfield represent familiar faculty from the history of Princeton Theological Seminary, but despite his having taught in the seminary for nearly thirty years, Alexander Taggart McGill is not very well known.
Dr. McGill died on the Sabbath of January 13, 1889. William Henry Green led the funeral service for his fallen colleague and described him as a passionate preacher who was concerned for his students, and he was a true friend. The New York Times brief notice of his memorial service observed, “A number of theological seminaries sent representatives and the general attendance was large.” Dr. McGill had been married twice. His first wife was Eleanor Atcheson McCulloch, daughter of Congressman and General George McCulloch of Lewistown, Pennsylvania. They had eight children, one of which died in infancy. Following Eleanor’s death in 1873, in 1875, McGill married Catherine Bache Hodge, the daughter of Charles Hodge. Catherine died on July 3, 1884.
Part of the reason McGill is not remembered as much as the Alexanders and Hodges, and Samuel Miller and B. B. Warfield is that he was not a voluminous writer. His publications were mostly sermons, articles, and discourses, but he did publish a book of his seminary lectures titled, Church Government, A Treatise Compiled from His Lectures in Theological Seminaries by Alexander T. McGill, Philadelphia: Presbyterian Board of Publication, 1888, and another work is the first section of A Short History of American Presbyterianism From Its Foundations to the Reunion of 1869, published 1903, which covers the Presbyterians from their beginnings in the United States to the Revolutionary War.
