BY THE LATE WILLIAM WILBERFORCE, ESQ. EDITED BY HIS SON, ROBERT ISAAC WILBERFORCE, M. A. VICAR OF EAST FARLEIGH, LATE FELLOW OF ORIEL COLLEGE. FIFTH AMERICAN, from tHE SECOND LONDON EDITION. Robert Froup Preni BY THE REV. JOHN SWETE, D. D. Harvard College NEW YORK: SWORDS, STANFORD, AND CO. ADVERTISEMENT. As it is hoped that this publication may be useful, it is judged expedient to print it separately, rather than to unite it with some other pieces by Mr. Wilberforce, which, in process of time, will probably be presented to the public. The editor takes this opportunity of mentioning that a life of Mr. Wilberforce, compiled from his own letters and journals, will be published at as early a period as the magnitude of the task allows. |
