Excerpt from Baptism; An Argument and a Reply

The first edition of this little work was issued in 1880. Owing chiefly to an over pretentious title for which I was in no way responsible, the balance of the edition left unsold on my return from a year's absence from Canada, was destroyed. A second edition was pub lished in 1882, in reply to Mr. Mckay's review of my first pamphlet. This edition has been exhausted. The present pamphlet contains the substance of the preced ing one, with some points more fully elaborated and new ones added. Great care has been taken to verify every quotation and to guard every statement. As I seek both to reply to Mr. Mckay and carry forward an argument for the Baptist View of the mode and subjects of baptism, the treatment is not as compact as could be wished. Special attention is called to the foot notes and addenda, as they deal with many of the charges and statements of the pamphlet to which mine is an answer. Where it is possible, the reader of this pamphlet should also readthose to which-i reply, so that he may consider both sides fairly. I can only add a hope that these pages may not be made the occasion for bitterness of feeling by any, but may be of service to the truth, and express a wish for the time to come when candid discus sion of disputed points may cause no abatement of the warmth of that Christian fellowship which should exist between all who are followers of the same Lord.
