Excerpt from The Argument, a Priori: For the Being and the Attributes of the Lord God, the Absolute One, and First Cause Besides stating the circumstances under which the fresh issue is placed before a thoughtful public, the Trustees requested one of their number to prepare a suitable Preface. In accepting the responsibility, the writer has kept before him the fact that his work is not to enter into episodes of Mr. Gillespie's family history, details of his habits, his domestic life or his friend ships, or to give an Appreciation of his life; but to endeavour to convey, as accurately as may be, an impression of his character as received, partly through reading his written statements, partly by considering his known actions, and partly from opinions expressed by those still alive who knew him personally. Neither is it the writer's pro vince to enter into the merits of Mr. Gillespie's various books, but to make such references to them as will indicate his teaching. An effort has been made to obtain from likely sources all information that would help in preparing this Monograph.
