R. S. Duncan, a work upon which much labor of research, compilation and authorship has been expended, making an invaluable contribution to the interest and progress of the denomination in this state. Such a work as Mr. Duncan's is not only of so much value that every Baptist in the state of to-day ought to have it and read it; but its value to the future historian will be simply inestimable. Very much of the historical and biographical interest of the following pages was derived from the reading of Mr. Duncan's work.
