Excerpt from The Origin and Progress of the Methodist Episcopal Church in Warren, R. I: Including Notices of Many Clergymen and Others Who Have Contributed to Its Planting and Growth
Tms does not claim to be a coniplete history of the Church at Warren, as the reader of these pages will read ily perceive. What is here written has been obtained with an amount of labor and research which might have produced greater and more satisfactory results had the work been prosecuted some years earlier, when many ao tors ln these scenes were living, who have now passed away. All available sources of information have been explored: attempts have been made to rescue facts of ln terest from the decaying memories of aged persons; pub lic records have been searched, and the writer has been much indebted to published works, to which due acknowl edgment is made in the appropriate places. Some pages of manuscript prepared by the Rev. J. H. James, and a manuscript sermon of the Rev. Sidney Dean have rendered valuable assistance in the work; and the author's thanks are due to the lion. Henry II. Luther, Town Clerk of Warren, for his courtesy in affording access to the records of the town, and supplying valuable information. The special interest of the work is limited to a single locality.
