Excerpt from The History of the Wesleyan Methodist Missionary Society, Vol. 1 of 5 The Missionary Society found itself confronted, not only with the loss of the most competent historian in the Church, but also with the fact that the very completeness of Dr. Findlay's work had become an obstacle in the way of its accomplishment. To continue the preparation of the History on the same scale entailed an indefinite prolongation of the time required before its publication could be expected, while the completed work would be of such dimensions as would make it awkward to handle and inaccessible to many.
