Over the years, I’ve run across Henry I. Cushman’s 1888 essay “Catholic Universalism” but never sat down and read it from beginning to end in one sitting. I’ve learned the best way for me to do so is to prepare a transcription for the web, and this is the result of that effort.
Cushman was part of that generation of liturgically-minded and -productive Universalists and this essay show his influence.
I’ve added links where helpful and marked page breaks in the original in square brackets.

I continue to find it fascinating that by the UCA Centenary, the Universalists in general seem vaguely embarrased by the generations before. There is a subtle looking down on them. We praise our forefathers for preparing the way for us.
