Reprint of the original, first published in 1840.

Excerpt from History of Baptist Indian Missions: Embracing Remarks on the Former and Present Condition of the Aboriginal Tribes; Their Settlement Within the Indian Territory, and Their Future Prospects The materials which more than twenty years' missionary Operations had supplied amounted to more than time and oppor tunity to write, and the means to meet the cost of publishing, admitted into the work; and much has been omitted that would probably be useful to the public. Most of the missionaries have not been sufficiently careful to record in their journals all mat ters of interest, and the accessible resources of information, besides my own notes, have been scanty beyond expectation. It is hoped, however, that, by the vigilance of missionaries in future, these defects may, in some measure, be remedied.
