Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Contributions to the Ecclesiastical History of the United States, Vol. 2
But the object more particularly in view, in the present allusion to this subject, is the performance of an act of justice on the part of the present writer. In the enumeration made, in the preface to his former volume, of books connected with our own Church history, there was an omission of the labours of a brother in the ministry, who has now gone to his rest. The Rev. Dr. Dalcho of South Carolina, had published a volume full of inter. Esting facts and valuable materials for a history of that diocese and the present writer had been indebted to it for some of the information he used in his volume on the Virginia Church. As he may be called to follow his departed brother, before another opportunity is afforded (him of publicly doing justice to the labours of Dr. Dalcho, he avails himself of this opportunity to say that the omission of his book was entirely undesigned. It arose from accident, and when he discovered it too late for cor rection, no one lamented it more sincerely than he did. Dr. Balebo's work is one full of authentic information, collected by means of the most patient and laborious research.
