the preparation of this "History of Knox Church" I have been indebted to the following sources of information:—The carefully kept minutes of the Session and of the Deacons' Court, the office-bearers' Annual Reports, Knox Church Quarterly Statement, The New Zealand Presbyterian, The Otago Daily Times, The Otago Witness, and the Rev. C. S. Ross's Story of the Otago Church and Settlement, and his Otago Education and Educationists.

I have been greatly encouraged and helped in my work by kindly words and hints from Dr Stuart, whose interesting introduction, notes, and reminiscences add largely to the value of the book.

I wish also to express my obligation to the Revision and Publication Committee appointed at my request by the office-bearers of the church. My warmest thanks are due to the Rev. Mr Davidson for the valuable assistance he so readily gave me in the revision of the proofs. J. H.
