Excerpt from Letters to a Dissenting Minister, of the Congregational Independent Denomination: Containing Remarks on the Principles of That Sect, and the Author's Reasons for Leaving It, and Conforming to the Church of England
Previously to the commencement of the following pages, the Author received repeated solicitations to publish his reasons for leaving the Dissenters and conforming to the Established Church, not only from several of his old friends, but also from some highly respectable and worthy Churchmen, who urged it upon him as an imperative duty. To such requests, seconded by the circumstances and events of the times, he at length acceded, but with no small degree of reluctance and diffidence: not that he entertained the slightest doubt of the truth and rectitude of the opinions he has advocated, or of the falsehood and pernicious tendency of the principles and sentiments he has opposed; but simply because he was afraid, lest the Holy Cause which he felt most anxious to serve should suffer through his incompetency and inexperience as a writer; and because there were numbers who, to say nothing of their being much more interested, were, in point of talent, learning, and leisure, incomparably better able than himself to defend the Church and oppose her enemies. Having daily business to attend to, besides other necessary engagements, he was aware that his labours in the work of composition, would unavoidably meet with numerous interruptions. But, notwithstanding such discouragements, he commenced the task, and, considering all things, has executed it as well as he was able.
