  • The Presbyterian and Reformed Review
    — THE PRESBYTERIAN AND REFORMED REVIEW No. 41—January, 1900. I. DR. McGIFFERT’S HISTORICAL METHODS. ROFESSOR McGIFFERT’S History of Christianity in the P Apostolic Aye came before the world with more than ordi- nary claims to attention. It had the novelty of being an original contribution to the literature of the subject by an American scholar, and the further novelty of reaching its results by meth- ods hitherto more familiar to the German than to the English reader. It was issued as a volume of the “ International Theo- logical Library” and deemed worthy to be associated with the other works of that series emanating from well-known theologians and designed for the use of theological students on either side of the Atlantic. As such, it was ushered into the world with the apparent sanction of those who, as editors of the series, are pre- sumably responsible for the selection of the writers, if not for the indorsement of their general views. And it was sent forth under the imprint of an eminent publishing firm long and honorably known for its services in introducing to the English public trans- lations of Continental theology and not less enterprising of late in the publication of new works, English or American, in that domain.* It is a book, moreover, marked by freshness, vigor and adequate scholarship as well as by readiness of resource, power of ingenious combination, and ample license of conjecture, discard- ing commonly received opinions and advancing others with singu- lar freedom and self-confidence. * [Dr. Dickson’s allusion is to the well-known publishing house of Messrs.

  • June 1987 Department of Theology and Church History Q Kenneth G
    HOLY COMMUNION IN THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY A Thesis submitted to the University of Glasgow for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy KENNETH GRANT HUGHES IFaculty of Divinity, June 1987 Department of Theology and Church History Q Kenneth G. Hughes 1987 i ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to record my indebtedness to the late Rev. Ian A. Muirhead, M. A., B. D., formerly lecturer in the Department of Ecclesiastical History in the University of Glasgow, who guided my initial studies relating to the subject of this thesis. I am particularly conscious, also, of my special debt to his successor, Dr. Gavin White, who accepted me as one of his research students without demur and willingly gave time and consideration in guiding the direction of my writing and advising me in the most fruitful deployment of the in- formation at my disposal. The staff of the University Library, Glasgow, have been unfailingly helpful as have the staff of the Library of New College, Edinburgh. Mr. Ian Hope and Miss Joyce Barrie of that Library have particularly gone out of their way to assist in my search for elusive material. I spent a brief period in Germany searching for docu- mentary evidence of Scottish-students of divinity who matric- ulated at the universities of Germany and, again, I wish to acknowledge the help given to me by the Librarians and their staffs at the University Libraries of Heidelberg and Ttbingen. My written enquiries to Halle, Erlangen, Marburg, Giessen, G6ttingen and Rostock met with a most courteous response, though only a small amount of the interesting material they provided was of use in this present study.

It covers the period 1790-1904, and includes: notebooks; a map of Lake Simcoe watershed; photocopies of clippings; a typescript copy of an 1878 census of Oshawa; a copy of the Oshawa Vindicator, 1894, containing industrial history; and manuscript and typescripts copies of "From Cornwall to Canada, 1841", being facts collection by Sam Pedlar and rewritten by Charles H. Wethy (Toronto), regarding the Cornish immigration to Canada. The material was purchased from Samuel Pedlar (Oshawa) in May, 1904 and May, 1905, and borrowed from Mrs. Oscar Mills (Oshawa) in April, 1963. Dec. 10, 1969 R. Nickerson la FRAME 1 Clinton, November 21, 1894 S. Pedlar, Esq. Toronto Dear Sir: Your letter of the 9th inst relative to the name of Oshawa was duly received. I have been studying the question at this time suggested in Mr. Bateman's letter but find various difficulties. An interpretation not mentioned by him, but offered by good authority makes the word mean FRAME 2 "ferry him over." The word in Indian (i.e. Ojibway) would bear that interpretation: but how about the local application? I know little of Oshawa except what I learn from the directories. There mentions Warren Creek as a stream flowing through the town. Would this creek before it was bridged have required a ferry? And do you happen to know if there was once a ferry at Oshawa? Next, then an Indian village at or near the site of the present town? If you can give the information on these points I may be better able to find a satisfactory answer to your inquiries which I shall be happy to do.

  • The Place of Dr Robert Lee in the Developments in the Public
    Dr Robert Lee 31 The Place of Dr Robert Lee in the Developments in the Public Worship of the Church of Scotland 1840-1940M Our generation has occupied itself with re-examining the character and work of many prominent Victorians. It is timely that we should now re-examine the work of Dr Robert Lee, who has often been regarded as the father of the liturgical revival within the Church of Scotland during the last hundred years ; for Lee in himself epitomizes the urges and misunderstandings which largely shaped the movement for some fifty years. When Dr Lee's critics accused him of attempting to save the Established Church by piling up prayer books as buttresses to support her cracked and crumbling walls, they were pointing to factors in Lee's conduct which must be recognized now, if we are to assess his work. It was primarily as an ecclesiastical statesman, and not as some cloistered liturgical scholar who longed for the riches of sacramental and catholic worship, that Lee entered the field. He was possessed of considerable liturgical know- ledge. While his contemporaries were agreed that his extemporary prayers were so fine that he had much less reason than any of his fellow ministers to seek the aid of a book of prayers, yet the discerning saw in Lee one who was fitted neither by gifts nor temperament to be the reformer who should set right the Church's devotions. (2) Lee was a man of the world. He was known for his liberal theological views. He trembled for the future of a Church which had been dangerously weakened by the Disruption of 1843, and which was continuing to lose many intelligent and influential members to the growing Scottish Episcopal Church.
