M., Sometime Fellow of Lincoln College, Oxford, and Founder of the Methodist Societies Vsruons Lives or Memoirs of the Founder of Me thodism have already been laid before the public. But it has been frequently remarked that such of these as contain the most approved accounts of Mr. Wesley, have been carried out to a length which obstructs their circulation, by the intermixture of details com paratively uninteresting beyond the immediate circle of Wesleyan Methodism. The present Life, therefore, without any design to supersede larger publications, has been prepared with more special reference to go neral readers. But, as it is contracted within moderate limits chie y by the exclusion of extraneous matter, it will, it is hoped, be found suficiently comprehensive to give the reader an adequate view of the life, labours and opinions of the eminent individual who is its sub ject; and to afford the means of correcting the most material errors and misrepresentations which have had currency respecting him. On several points the Author has had the advantage of consulting unpub lished papers, not known to preceding biographers, and which have enabled him to place some particulars in a more satisfactory light.
