Excerpt from The Life of the Rev. Samuel Leigh, Missionary to the Settlers and Savages of Australia and New Zealand: With a History of the Origin and Progress of the Missions in Those Colonies In forming an estimate of the character and acts of public bodies and private individuals, the writer has been influenced solely by the concurrence of cir cumstances, or the evidence of facts; and, having no interests to serve but such as involve the public good, or the progress of religion in the world, he has endeavoured to write with candour and impartiality. Few examples have been recorded in the annals of the church, since the apostolic age, more striln'ngly illustrative of the providence and grace of God than the Life of the Rev. Samuel Leigh.
