"It may have been printed at tlie instance of tlio Rev. Dr. Eleazer Wheelock, or 
by tlie Boston Commissioners of the (Scotch) Society for Propagating Christian 
Knowledge, for the use of the missionaries and school-masters sent from New- 
England to the Sis Nations. 
" Wm. Weyman was employed by Sir Wm. Johnson, in 17G2, to print a ni?\v 
edition of the Mohawk Prayer-Book, and began the work early in 1703, uudcr 
the supervision of the Rev. Dr. Barclay. Its progress was interrupted by the 
death of Dr. Barclay, in 1764, and less than half the book was printed when 
Weyman died, in July, 1768. In the meautime several missionaries had gone 
from New England to the Six Nations ; Mr. Cornelius Bennett, a catechist of the 
Episcopal church, was teaching school among the Mohawks in 1764 ; Mr. C. J. 
Smith (accompanied by young Josejih Brant) and the Rev. Sauniel Kirt.land 
went, the same year, from Lebanon, as missionaries to the same field— sent by 
the Boston Commissioners, and several others were preparing themselves at Leb- 
anon for this mission. This Prayer-Book and Catechism was probably printed 
for the use of these missionaries and their Indian scholars. It seems to be a re- 
print, so far as it goes, of the first edition (Wm. Bradfor,!, 1715), omitling the 
' Several Chapters of the Old aud New Testament ' ; and founded, like that edition 
on the translations made 'by Mr. Freeman, a very worthy Calvinist minister.'" 
For other editions of the Book of Commou Prayer, see Claesse (L.), 1715, and 
note thereto.
