Excerpt from History of the Church in the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries, Vol. 1 The present translation, originally a joint undertaking of B. H. Nada], D. D., at that time pastor of Trinity Church, Philadelphia, but at present Professor of Church History in the Drew Theological Seminary, and myself, but owing to my removal to Germany in 1866, and the claims which Dr. Nadal's large parish so made upon his time as to leave him but little for meeting the literary engagements to which he was positively pledged, a mutually satisfactory arrangement was made by which the continuation and completion of the work was left in my hands. While Lectures I. - VII., IX., and part of X., of the first volume, and portions of Lectures XVI. And XVII. Of the second volume, were translated by him, I deeply regret the absence of his vigor and skill as a translator in the preparation of the body of the work, and especially in the laborious final revision of the whole. It was originally designed to delay the publication of the translation until the issue of a new German edition, but after Dr. Hagen bach's personal assurance that the time of its appearance was very uncertain, and that the present was substantially the final shape which he designed his work to retain, for his emendations would be very few and of a trivial character, chie y verbal, and by no means such as to justify the slightest delay in the publication of the American edition, it was deemed advisable, by both the publishers and the translator, to commit it to the public.
