Présentation de l'éditeur

Some years ago, when I came into my parish, one of the first subjects which occurred to me for a Lecture, (such as are now so universally given in-S chool-rooms and Mechanics I nstitutes,) was the Parish Eegister. The lecture, or rather lectures, which were given accordingly, excited very great interest among the parishioners; a thousand little particulars being brought to light, concerning habits, morals, statistics, family genealogies, and personal histories, which connected or contrasted past times with the present in a very instructive way. The study of his Parish Eegister is one which may be strongly recommended to every clergyman.
