About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos or missing text. Not indexed. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1895. Not illustrated.

For our own sake, to confirm us in our attachment to our own observances, and also for the sake of those who know nothing of our Church and her ways, we wish and ought to be fully instructed and fully established. It will be my purpose, therefore, during the Sunday mornings of this Lenten season to study with you the origin, purpose and observance of Lent. I shall endeavor to stud...
