Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Classis of Paramus of the Reformed Church in America: Containing the Proceeding of the Centennial Meeting of the Classis, the Historical Discourse, and the Addresses, Statistical History and the Histories of the Individual Churches The committee appointed to edit and publish the Centennial History of the Classis of Paramus contained in these pages, would have hesitated a long time before undertaking the work, had there been the least apprehension of the labor it has required, to secure its satisfactory completion. Without the cordial cooperation of the ministry and the Churches of the Classis such a result would have been impossible. The committee hereby acknowledge their indebtedness to all who have given needed aid. They desire to thank the brethren who by their able addresses caused the anniversary exercises to overflow with interest and delight, the pastors who have prepared the histories of the churches, the consistories who have diligently gathered portraits of their former pastors and the friends and acquaintances and even strangers who have confided to their care cherished mementoes, oftentimes the only photograph of a loved one they possessed, that the illustration of the work might be more complete; to each and to all of these the committee are grateful, and would have them recognized as efficient co-laborers. The assistance received from the Rev. David Cole, D. D., of Yonkers, N. Y., has been so cheerfully rendered and so exceedingly valuable that the committee gratefully make special acknowledgment of his kindness. The authors and not the committee arc responsible for all statements made in the histories of the churches, the individuality of which both in style and expression has been carefully guarded and preserved. Slight discrepancies may also be discovered in the spelling of proper names. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
