In attempting to write a history of the Baptists no one is more
aware of the embarrassments surrounding the subject than the
author. These embarrassments arise from many sources. We are far
removed from many of the circumstances under survey; the
representations of the Baptists were often made by enemies who did
not scruple, when such a course suited their purpose, to blacken
character; and hence the testimony from such sources must be
received with discrimination and much allowance made for many
statements; in some instances vigilant and sustained attempts were
made to destroy every document relating to these people; the
material that remains is scattered through many libraries and
archives, in many lands and not always readily accessible; often,
on account of persecutions, the Baptists were far more interested
in hiding than they were in giving an account of themselves or
their whereabouts; they were scattered through many countries, in
city and cave, as they could find a place of concealment; and
frequently they were called by different names by their enemies,
which is confusing. Yet it is a right royal history they have. It
is well worth the telling and the preserving.
