Excerpt from History of the American Episcopal Church: Revised and Enlarged and Continued to the Year 1915 IN preparing this sketch of the American Church originally, I stopped at the close of the Civil War. Of course that was an arbitrary stopping place. The war was not an ecclesiastical epoch, and its settlement concluded no Church movement. But its date coin cided with that of the entrance upon the stage of the generation of Churchmen now living. I shrank from the frank expression of opinion of contemporary men and events which I had ventured concerning those the record of whose in uence had been made up. Furthermore, the most difficult of all history to write is contemporaneous history. One cannot tell surely what events are important and what are trivial. Time, and time alone, sorts them out and assigns to each its proper significance. Nevertheless, it now seems well, or at any rate necessary, to brie y sketch the Church's movement during the last quarter century. N o doubt I have omitted as unimportant, men and things which others would have dwelt upon, and have laid emphasis upon events which others would have disregarded. All that one can say is that this is the way the history appears to me. If it appears otherwise to another, he has the right to record it in his fashion.
