A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Preface. AMUEL RUTHERFORDS Letters are known in the churches everywhere ;and here are notes of his preaching. These sermons, as quaint as his Letters in some respects, have never till now appeared in print. They form part of a manuscript volume in which are included other sermons of the same author that have already been published. They are carefully and neatly written in the old style of handwriting. Who it was who took down the notes of these sermons at the time, and who it was that gathered all together into the volume, we do not know. One thing is certain, viz., he was a most attentive hearer and a faithful attender on the ministers preaching; for at p. 232 he notes that he had the mis fortune to miss one sermon in the course by absence. It is something of a guarantee for the authenticity of the whole to find, as we do on a close examination, that the first half of the MS. collection contains the discourses that have already been published, but in a much more archaic spelling, and with Scotch words that must have been modernised in the printed copies.
(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)
