Tribute to the Memory of the Pilgrims: And a Vindication of the Congregational Churches of New England (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Tribute to the Memory of the Pilgrims: And a Vindication of the Congregational Churches of New England

After he had consented to the publication Of the Lectures, it was his intention to give them a careful revision, that he might correct those inaccuracies in style and language which necessarily attend the first draught Of a composition. But the pressure of daily employments, together with feeble health, has rendered this impracticable; and he is now compelled to com mit the work to the press with only expressing his regret at defects which he is unable to supply. This, however, is not Offered as an apology for errors in sentiment, or for mis-statement Of material facts. If in these respects, the author has in any case fallen into mistakes, he can only say that it has not been for the want Of a desire to know, nor of sincere endeavors to ascertain the truth.
