Shotwell of Columbia University for his guidance and inspiration during the years of histor ical study and for his advice in this specific undertaking; to Professor F. J. F oakes Jackson for the intimate glimpses which he has given into the inner circles Of the movements discussed and for the great amount of time he has so gener ously spent in reading the manuscript; to the Order of the Holy Cross, West Park, New York, for its kindness in ad mitting the writer to its institution and library; to the librarians Of the General Theological Seminary, Columbia University, Union Theological Seminary, and the New York Public Library for their courteous consideration; to Miss Cornelia T.
