We are at liberty to state, that the present work was commenced with the approbation of the Rt. Rev. Dr. Fenwick, Bishop of Boston. The compiler having observed, for a long time, the necessity of a cheap Singing Book, suitable for Catholic Singing Schools, and small choirs, has been induced to prepare this work with the hope that it may be received with favor by those for whom it is intended; believing that, if properly executed, it would be productive ol much good, and be of great advantage to singing schools and singing societies. As singing is considered of so much consequence at the present day, being taught and studied to a considerable extent, in the common schools of Boston and vicinity, Catholic children are in the habit of singing in these schools, hymns and songs used in Protestant worship, and when they go home, or are at play, they are singing them over, for want of a Cheap Catholic Singing Book to practice and amuse themselves with in their leisure hours, and thus impart new vigor to the mind.
