Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Thoughts on the Religious State of the Country: With Reasons for Preferring Episcopacy
Inasmuoii as it has been supposed by'some, that the author Of these 'pages has made certain demonstrations with his, pen against that, which he now adopts and ad vocates, itis not unlikely, that his consistency will be drawn in question. Admitting that he has manifested such an inclination, it can only be said, that he has changed his opinion, w which is inpart, the design Of this book to set forth, with the reasons thereof. If he has written against, and in the conflict, or in any train of consequences; has beenkonvinced, that his former posi tioh was wrong, the least atonement he can make is to honour what he now regards as truth with a profession as public and a defence as earnest, as any othei doings Of his on the other side. It is due to himself to say and to claim, that while he remained a Presbyte rian, he was an honest one and it Would be very strange, if he had never said or done anything to vindi'a cate that ground. Doubtless he has. He may now be an equally honest Episcopalian, and charityavould not require him to assert it.
