Excerpt from History of the Ritual of the Methodist Episcopal Church: With a Commentary on Its Offices
If, therefore, I have failed to portray men and events in their true color and perspective, as a Puritan, a Churchman, or a Romanist here and there may think I have, the supposed fail ure may probably be found not in my con scious prejudice or misunderstanding of the situation, but in the partisan view of my critic.
And, now, there remains to me only the pleasant task of expressing my gratitude to the kind friends who have encouraged me in this undertaking, especially that eminent lay man, Robert T. Miller, Esq, of Covington, Ky., who to business sagacity of a high order has united in leisure hours the ever-deepening love of scholarly pursuits valuable to Meth odism. Would that of many other able lay men, numerous in the Church, it might also be said, Saul also is among the prophets!
