PREFACE.

Halifax, Sunday, 26th August, 1778.—“Understanding there was great need of it, I preached on ‘Render unto Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s.’ I spoke with all plainness, and yet did not hear that anyone was offended.”

JOHN WESLEY.

Halifax, 1836.—“I am very sorry that there was a ‘great need’ for Mr. Wesley to bring (this) charge ... though unable to unravel the secret.”

URIAH WALKER
(Methodist Historian).
