Synopsis

Excerpt from The Precious Gift

Few words are necessary in laying before the public the second volume of the works of the late Rev. Thomas Applegate.

The warm reception, with whio The Voice of Sacred Triples has been received; and the earnest request of many for another such Work, has induced us to place in the hands of devout readers, a volume which, we feel confident to affirm, will be perused with equal profit and pleasure.

Its pages are designed to explain the preciousness of that gift which we received from our heavenly father, in the person of His son jesus christ.
