Excerpt from History of the Mission of the Secession Church: To Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, From Its Commencement in 1765 Our object in publishing this volume is to contribute the little that Providence has enabled us to do to wards a complete history of a Church whose exist ence must be ascribed, under God, to the Secession Church in Scotland; whose exertions have been greatly blessed to the inhabitants of an uncommonly valuable section of our colonies, and whose present condition eminently deserves our sympathy and aid. We must not forget what God did by our fathers in the days of old. If we do so, we shall fail in the gratitude that is due to the great Head of the Church - we shall lose the benefit of the example set before us by our predecessors, and shall, at the same time, form exaggerated notions of our own efforts, in comparison with those of former times.
