Excerpt from The Aberdeen Doctors: A Notable Group of Scottish Theologians of the First Episcopal Period, 1610-1638 and the Bearing of Their Teaching on Some Questions of the Present Time I could do in perfect keeping with mv subject, for it was a question on which the Doctors themselves gave a pronouncement, not of course in its present aspect, but as it forced itself upon them in their day. I have put into Appendices information which could not find a suitable place in the Lectures themselves. The biographical and historical matter which they contain will, I hope, be of some service to any who may wish to prosecute the matter further. I wish to express my indebtedness to Mr. J. B. Douglas, m.a., for his assistance in the preparation of the volume, and to mv friend Mr. William Wallace, LL.D., for many helpful suggestions.
