Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
Excerpt from How Did They Get There?, Or the Non-Conforming Ministers of 1662: A Question for Those Who Would Celebrate the Bi-Centenary of St. Bartholomew's Day, 1662 Churchmen should acquaint themselves with the history of the Church. Half a dozen lectures on the subject, in every parish in England, would effect great good on the minds of many. Dissenters are reported to have raised at least to commemorate this bi-centenary. If this be all, or even if the amount be double this sum, if regarded as an aggregate result of a general effort, I think it must be considered as a failure, since individual instances of liberality for Church purposes have, in many cases, nearly equalled this.

By Bartholomew's Day, 24 August, 1662, all ministers and schoolmasters in England and Wales were required by the Act of Uniformity to have given their "unfeigned assent and consent" to the Book of Common Prayer of the Church of England. On theological grounds nearly two thousand ministers--approximately one fifth of the clergy of the Church of England--refused to comply and thereby forfeited their livings. This book has been written to commemorate the 350th Anniversary of the Great Ejectment. In Part One three early modern historians provide accounts of the antecedents and aftermath of the ejectment in England and Wales, while in Part Two the case is advanced that the negative responses of the ejected ministers to the legal requirements of the Act of Uniformity were rooted in positive doctrinal convictions that are of continuing ecumenical significance.
