Excerpt from Lives of Ebenezer Erskine, William Wilson, and Thomas Gillespie: Fathers of the United To the friends of the Scottish Secession of 1733, no apolog is necessary for embodying among the memorials and writings of the United Presbyterian Fathers a Life of Ebenezer Erskine. If true that public questions frequently take their form and colour from those that handle them, it will follow that, to estimate great movements aright, we must take into account the spirit and pur pose of the men. The life of Ebenezer Erskine and the progress of the Secession are mutually illustrative. They are indeed often blended thus rendering it impossible to pursue the line of biographical narrative without stepping into the track of public history. But for this very reason it is all the more obvious, how much it is akin to the plan of the present series to find, in the goodly fabric which Erskine and his compeers were instrumental in raising, a tablet on which to record their graces and services - to the glory of Him who made them what they were, and in whose name they did exploits.
