Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Familiar Treatise on Christian Baptism: Illustrated With Engravings, Designed for Young Christians and Baptized Children
The following treatise is not designed for the learne ed. The reader therefore need not expect to find any attempt at learned criticism. The first part, ex cept a few additions now made, was published sev enteen years ago, and addressed to a young convert, one of the author's pastoral charge, for Whose spe cial ben efit it was written. Fprepared it, as I then said in an introductory note, not because there are no works on the subject Which I for the most part approve, nor because I consider myself capable of writing With greater, or even equal ability with many whose writings are before the public; but because most of the works on this subject are either too long, are written With too much acrimony, or are not sufficiently simple for common readers.
