The sudden death of Vice-P resident Wilson found him busily engaged in the preparation of the closing volume of this History. Most of the chapters had been written, and the materials gathered for the remainder. The Publishers immediately arranged with the Rev. Samuel Hunt who had been associated with Mr. Wilson from the inception of his work, and who carried the previous volumes through the press to complete the work and attend to the printing of this volume. By long and intimate connection with Mr. Wilson, and by thorough acquaintance and sympathy with his ideas and purposes, Mr. Hunt had peculiar qualifications for finishing this History, and the Publishers have no hesitation in assuring the public that the volume is in every respect substantially what it would have been had Mr. Wilson fortunately lived to complete it.
