It is from the writings of those men, affectionately and justly styled
the "Fathers of the Church," that treasures of thought, of morality, of
doctrine, and of historical facts, have been drawn by succeeding ages. *
* * * There are various causes why the works, and even, the names, of
the Early Fathers, are almost unknown to many Christians. * * * * To
Protestant readers, one great cause, perhaps the most powerful of all,
exists, and that is, the corruptions introduced into the Roman Catholic
Church, in later ages, on the pretended basis of their authority; the
legends and miracles interpolated with the narratives of their lives and
deaths, and the perversion or exaggeration of their opinions.
