Excerpt from The New Golden Chain of Sabbath School Melodies: Containing Every Piece (Music and Words), Of the Golden Chain, With About One-Third Additional Such has been the immense popularity of the golden chain that two entire sets of electrotype plates have been used up in the printing of the book, and, as the demand for it is still unabated, it has been found necessary to re-electrotype the whole work. In the new golden chain all the pieces, (music and Hymns), of the old Chain are retained, Without change of folios, With the exception that La Mira, page 127, chain, will be found on page 124 of the new golden chain, while, by the use of new and beautiful type we are enabled to insert about one third more additional tunes and hymns, without crowding the pages, all of which are proved Gems. While the new chain conforms in size, price and page with the old and may consequently be used in connection with it, it is at the same time in itself almost a New Work. Its unprecedented popularity will be materially enhanced now that it appears in its new dress, with one-third new matter. In most of the old pieces arranged in three parts, Tenors are now inserted.
