Contents Note

Some sermons in shorthand. The manuscript author divided the contents with several title pages: 1. "Notes for Lectures on the introductory part of ye Catechism," ff. 1r-13v; 2. "Lectures on the Commandments," ff. 13r-48v; 3. "Lectures on the Lord's Prayer," ff. 49r-65v; 4. "Lectures on the Sacraments," ff. 66r-88v (from 1739); 5. "Sermons," 90r-241v. These sermons are detailed preacher's notes, sometimes with revisions and corrections, and occasionally dated. Some of the material falls outside of the date range of GEMMS and is therefore not entered here.
