Records have been prepared, were made during the active period of my life, for my own use, and without any thought of their ever being made public. Friends in whose judgment I have much confidence, have thought that as they refer to many actors and events, during periods of great interest and importance in our Church and country, their publication would serve a good purpose. I have, therefore, reluctantly yielded to their request that they should be printed. Should any one reading these Records think my criticisms and judgments on some occasions too severe, I would say that my notes were made at the time the events alluded to occurred, and expressed what I then thought and felt. I deem it more honest to leave them as they were then written. It may be thought that too much of a personal nature has been introduced, but an autobiography must necessarily seem more or less egotistical. My object in writing the sketch of rny own life has been to show the important events and changes I have lived to see, and in which I have been called to take part. HEMAN DYER, September,
