[For a List of the Catechisms, see the Cover.] 

 The Publishers respectfully beg leave to observe, that, Q 

 independent of the high encomium above mentioned, | 

 "PINNOCK'S CATECHISMS" have met with the general | 

 approbation of a most numerous and respectable Cla*s of to 

 intelligent Teachers. They need only to be seen to ensure fy 

 thrir universal adoption ; the information they contain in |. 

 so small a compass being unparalleled, and the style in (jj) 

 which they are written, combining case, conciseness, (| 

 knd perspicuity. > 



" Bcins ld to look ir.to these works, we have been pleasingly sur- | 

 prised at the variety and accuracy of the information they contain, MJ 

 within so small a compass, and in so excellent a form ; and we must X 

 say that more convenient, accurate, weuVarmgd, and proper pubh- W 

 cations were never submitted to general observation." L,itcr. Gaz. W 

 ** * It is necessary to remark, that many spurious Edi- 9 

 tions, externally resembling the above, are circulated | 

 throughout the Kingdom. The Public should therefore be 

 cautious to purchase none but such a* have the names of U 

 the Publishers (G. fif W.B. WhiLtakcr)\\\ the Title-pages. |
