ON THE GOSPELS. SPECIALLY PREPARED FOR LAY READERS. FOR THE SUNDAYS AND HOLY DAYS, ADVENT TO TRINITY. MILWAUKEE.: THE YOUNG CHURCHMAN Co. 1896. 709638 10,191 PUBLISHER'S PREFACE. THE kind reception of the former volume, covering one half of the Christian Year, from Trinity to Advent, encourages the issue of the present volume, which completes the full year's sermons on the Holy Gospels. Like the previous volume, these sermons are contributed by Bishops and Priests of the Church, who are interested in supplying suitable sermons for the use of Lay Readers. Our thanks are due to each and all of the contributors who so kindly assisted us in carrying out our plans. Since the MSS. were placed in our hands, one of the writers, the Very Rev. Dean Gardner, of Trinity Cathedral, Omaha, has passed to the rest of Paradise. To all who knew him, his sermon will thus become a memorial of lasting interest. TABLE OF CONTENTS.
