McDowell also writes of personnel changes in the church: "Brother Brown and Brother Kollock will both be at the meeting.the prospect of a union with our board I think is good and if that Presbytery comes in it will do much towards bringing all Virginia into close union with us. Brother Plumer expects to remove to Richmond.in the last Richmond TELEGRAPH you will find a rather interesting account of Mr. Brown's parting with his people." The writer Rev. William A. McDowell was Secretary of the Board of Home Missions for seventeen years as well as the first pastor of the Presbyterian Church at Bound Brook N.J. and later at the First Church in Morristown N.J.

Roper historian scholar past head of the Islamic Bibliography Unit at Cambridge University Library 1982-2003 and Editor of Index Islamicus and of the World Survey of Islamic Manuscripts notes: "I have not been able to find any bibliographical record of this booklet but the type-face is certainly that of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions ABCFM press in Beirut. These types were supplied to other presses in the area at various times but in view of the content of this item it seems most likely to have been printed by the ABCFM." unknown books
