Besides the above, Dr. Woods wrote several tracts for the Doctrinal Tract Society, and was a liberal contributor to some of the most prominent religious periodicals of his day. Several of these articles may be reckoned among the ablest and most elaborate of all his productions. Many of these, together with a considerable number of sermons preached in the chapel of the Theological Seminary, at Andover, and never before published, are included in his works referred to below. He wrote, also, the sketches of Dr. Backus, of Somers, Conn., and of Dr. Church, of Pelham, N.H., for Sprague's "Annals of Trinitarian Congregationalists."

In 1846 he retired from his professorship, and from that time was engaged for several years in preparing for the press his theological lectures and a portion of his miscellaneous writings. These were published in five volumes, octavo, in 1849 and 1850, and have gained a wide circulation and great popularity. During the


148

last years of his life, he was occupied in writing the History of the Theological Seminary, with which he had been so long connected. It was left in an unfinished state, to be completed by his son. -Sprague's Annals of Trinitarian Congregationalists.
