Excerpt from Lectures on the History of the Church of Scotland: Delivered in Edinburgh in 1872 I would venture here to repeat what was, in fact, implied throughout the Lectures, that they do not profess to give anything like a complete account of the history of the Scot tish Church. Some of its most conspicuous personages, such as John Knox and Andrew Melville; some of its most conspicuous features, such as its system of education and of discipline some of its most conspicuous events, the General Assembly of 1638, and the Disruption of 1843, have been passed over, partly as sufficiently well known, partly for other reasons equally obvious. I will add that I have also, on principle, abstained from entering into the details of the several controversies in which the Church of Scotland has been at different times involved. The particular points at issue between the Burgh ers and the Anti-burghers, between the Secession, the Re lief, and the Free Church, between the Moderates and Populars, the Collegers, the Usagers, the Unionists and Anti-unionists, could only have been set forth by a minute investigation and exposition which would have diverted the attention from the general features of interest common to all of these divisions.
