To the American Editor of this volume it seems im portant, that the interesting historical facts contained in this Church History, should be more exten sively known in this country. In answer to the question, How is it that the history of the Church in these United States has been written by a Prelate of the Church in England We may be answered, that the Opportunity afforded in England, to consult the works of the earlier writers upon America and the correspondence of the earlier missionaries to America, has been embraced by the Author and most laboriously improved. He has brought out many facts and selected many very interesting inci dents before generally unknown.
