Notes on a Manuscript Volume of Covenanting Testimonies, Letters, and Sermons

Abstract

The manuscript volume has 172 surviving leaves and is bound in leather. The names of several owners occur in different parts of the book. By far the greater part of the volume is filled with copies of covenanting sermons, letters, and dying testimonies. It is argued that they were copied in the first half of the eighteenth century or earlier. Three previously unpublished testimonies and two letters are reproduced in full.
