Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

The work will thus be the means of promoting an enlightened denominational attachment and zeal; and of advancing the highest purposes of scriptural Christianity.
