Excerpt from The Story of Harecourt: Being the History of an Independent Church

The inspection of valuable mss. Under his care, and for other assistance, I am deeply indebted. The Authorities at the State Paper Ofiice aided my research in every way; and Mrs. Green kindly allowed me to examine a mass of private notes, relating to State Papers during several years not yet calendared. At the Tower Colonel Milman supplied me with several material points relating to Lord Mayor Tichborne, never before now made public. Readers at the British Museum are always ready to acknowledge with pro found gratitude the inestimable privileges which they there enjoy; and I have to express my deep appreciation of the help rendered me in more than one department. T o the Rev. Ssw. Kershaw, m.a., librarian at Lambeth Palace, I owe a hearty acknow ledgment for his courtesy, on the occasion of a visit to examine some valuable mss.

Excerpt from The Story of Harecourt: Being the History of an Independent Church

"The Story of Harecourt" is the history of an Independent Church, formed in 1648, by the Rev. George Cokayn, B.A. Hitherto very little has been known of him and those associated with him; and, whatever claim to originality this story may possess, the credit is due more to the facilities now offered for research, than to any special skill on my part. To those gentlemen who have lightened my labour I desire to tender my most sincere thanks; for without their help it would have been impossible to have gathered so many new facts concerning those of whom I write.
