In plain words, Bunyan united himself to the little Christian brotherhood at Bedford, of which the former loose- living royalist major, Mr. Gifford, was the pastor, and was formally admitted into their society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
