PREFACE. As this Volume concludes the present series of these Sermons, it only remains for me to repeat my acknowledgments to those Prelates and Clergymen who have enabled me to present so many excellent Discourses to the public, and to add my hopes, that the work may prove generally and extensively useful. I regret to find that a Sermon has been inadvertently inserted on the Claims of the Church Building Society, which, as I discovered some time after it was printed in this series, had been taken, with very little alteration, from one of Bishop Dehon's published Sermons. JOHN CLARKE CROSTHWAITE. St. Mary-at-Hill, June 1, 1846. |
