Ò'The Resultant Greek Testament' is intended to exhibit in a compact and intelligible form the latest results of textual criticism. . . . I have judged it more convenient to the reader to put in the body of the page the text on which the majority of modern critics are agreed, relegating to the footnotes readings less numerously or less weightily sanctioned.Ó from the Preface Weymouth based this Òmajority readingÓ text on the following editions: Lachmann (1842-50), Tregelles (1857-72), Tischendorf (1869-72), Alford (1874-77), the Bale edition (1880), Westcott and Hort (1881), the Revised Version readings (1881), Lightfoot's Pauline epistles (1865-75), Ellicott's Pauline epistles (1867-80), and Weiss's text of Matthew (1876). In addition, Weymouth notes that he made use of Vaticanus, Sinaiticus, and other uncials that earlier editors did not have available. For comparison, he used the Compultusian Polyglot, Robert Stephens' folio of 1550, and the Textus Receptus.

Ministers of the Dominion and Provincial Governments freely answered his numerous questions as to the wisest course to be adopted by various classes of emigrants, and Dominion and Provincial State officials gave him all possible information in frank talk and by placing at his disposal valuable State publications. Ministers of religion, prominent business and professional men, journalists, "real estate" men, hosts and hostesses in whose homes he was graciously received, heads of Emigration Departments, leading officials of the great transcontinental railways, all contributed to his accumulating stock of information; and, needless to say, he lost no opportunity of seeing things for himself and forming his own judgments. In his railway journeys, amounting to 10,000 miles, he fraternised with the commercial travellers on the trains, and from them, and their discussions and comparison of notes among themselves,
