Notes

From the Preface [p. 3]
A few words will suffice to explain the general character of the following work. The reporter was requested to undertake the preparation of it, and hopes that he has done some service to the cause of truth, and justice, and religion, in perpetuating a full record of the case. A strict impartiality, the highest recommendation to such a work, he has carefully endeavoured to maintain; and he thinks that a candid examination will satisfy every reader, that the idea of its being a party publication, an idea to which the supposed bias of his private opinions and feelings may give rise, is entirely erroneous.
