Description
Excerpt from The Life of the Rev. Thomas Scott, D.D., Rector of Aston Sandford, Bucks: Including a Narrative Drawn Up by Himself, and Copious Extracts of His Letters
It is more than possible that the publication of so detailed a story, concerning a clergyman of humble station, may appear to many a proceed ing altogether calling for - perhaps scarcely ad mitting of - apology. Some notice of this objec tion will be found in an early - part of the work itself. I shall only here add, that I could not but remember that I was called to give to the public an account of a person, on whose Works - of plain didactic theology - and those charged at the lowest price at which they could be af forded - that public had not thought it too much to expend more than two hundred thousand pounds, during the author''s own life-time.
