Excerpt from Thomas Guthrie
TO return thanks to all by name who have assisted me with information, letters, etc., in the preparation of the present work, would be impossible. I can only record my sense of gratitude to the majority of such helpers collectively. To three of these, however, I must return especial thanks, viz. To Mr. C. J. Guthrie, q.c., for his kindness in revising my ms., and for many useful criticisms and suggestions which have been gratefully adopted; to Mr. Mathew S. Tait for making me free of his stores of information regarding Disruption times; and to Mr. James Sime, m.a., late Principal of Craigmount School, for valuable facts regarding the relation Of the Free Church to Education.
