Excerpt from The New England Bibliopolist, or Notices of Books on American History, Biography, Genealogy, &C., 1892-1893, Vol. 7 Whatever may finally be concluded on the matter, the fact is undisputed that there was a reorganization of the church at Dorchester, Aug. 23, 1636, after the departure for Windsor, which took place in April, and that the initiation of this work of reorganization began also in April. The principal authorities relied on by both sides of the controversy are quoted by the authors of the introduction. They reach their conclusion with the minimum of argumentation, which judicial form of presenting the case enhances the value of their chapter. The volume is an excellent specimen of the printer's art. A single fault is noticeable that does not detract essentially from its merit, in the omission of the title page of the original volume. Which was intended to be page 1, as the typo graphy shows. The caption of this title is, however, quoted in the introduction, and the remainder of it is a mere recital by classification of the contents, so that nothing of significance fails to appear.
