BOSTON (THOMAS), Minister of Ettrick. Pas- 

 sages of my life. 4 

 [In the author's address to his children, pre- 

 fixed to the Memoirs of his life, published at 

 Edinburgh, in 1813, he alludes to the above 

 MS. as one of the means of letting them 

 know the manner of his life. He mentions 

 it as "a bound book in quarto, intitled. Pas- 

 sages of my life, at writing hereof, consisting 

 of three hundred and sixty-two written pages, 

 beginning from my birth, ending Oct. 19, 

 1730, and signed." Eight pages were after- 

 wards added, containing a Continuation. Al- 

 lusion is made to another MS., called the 

 General account of his life, consisting origi- 

 nally of two hundred and seventy-nine pages, 

 and afterwards extended to three hundred 

 and forty-two. The published memoirs con- 

 sist of the two MSS. reduced into one con- 

 tinued narrative.] 



- An essay on the Hebrew accents. A volume 

 in the handwriting of Boston. It contains 

 substantially the same views as the Latin work 

 intitled, Tractatus stigmologicus ; but it differs 

 from it in many particulars. It is supposed 

 to have been the first draught of the work ; 

 and that he afterwards wrote a more full and 

 perfect copy, which was probably sent to Am- 

 sterdam, where the Latin copy was printed 

 in 1738, and never returned. 

 CAMBUSLANG. Examinations of persons un- 

 der spiritual concern at Cambuslang, during 

 the revival, in 1741-42 ; by the Rev. William
