Excerpt from The Fathers of the German Reformed Church in Europe and America, Vol. 2
It is scarcely necessary to mention that, in German quotations from documents or epitaphs, we have given the original verbatim, even when the grammar and orthography have been defective - because this also is history. The same has been done in the former volume, as well as in the Life of Rev. Michael Schlatter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
