December 13. 7—tf PROPOSALS FOR PRINTING BY SUBSCRIPTION* A HISTORY OF THE RISE AND PROGRESS OF THF Baptists in Virginia. BY ROBERT B. SEMPLE, Miniiter ot the Go6pd, King & Queen, * A S early a* the year 1788, arrrangrmentf were made by the Baptist General Committee to collect material!? and publish a history of the Baptists of Virginia. Those to whom the business was committed made some progress in their collection ; but from certain causes much to be regretted, thif plan was never accomplished. Atter a considerable lapse of time, seve* ral of the associations djspairing to see a ge neral history completed, turned their atten tion to the publication of historical relati ons of their own districts. The General Meeting observing this,determined to mako one more attempt to effect a general hia* tory, being persuaded that partial onet could not answer the main design. They entrusted the execution of this plan to tha RevM A. Broaddus and the compiler. Mr. Broaddus’s other avocations precluded him from taking any part in the compilation. The whole of the labour and of the respon sibility, therefore, devolved upon the com piler. He can say iittle as to the execution of the work. His motive in attempting it wat to rescue from oblivion transactions which he earnestly believed to be worthy of the no tice of the present and future generations. He is persuaded that his book, however un refined in style and method, is sufficient to convey to the candid enquirer a correct view of those ways and works of God au<& his prople of which it professes to treat. Having been at great labour and expense in accomplishing a work so arduous in iff nature, he now throws himself upon the benevolence ofc his friends and the fr endt of truth, for his reward. He trusts that the desire to spread the knowledge of useful occurrences will prompt them to contribute all poflihle aid. It cannot be said with certainty, whea the work will be ready for delivery, but it is hoped that it will not be a more distant eriod than next spring. CONDITIONS. I.
