Note

In four parts.
The author's preface is followed by an Epistle to the reader, subscribed by Edward Hopkins and William Goodwin, Hartford, 28 Oct., 1647; a poem "In obitum viri doctissimi Thomæ Hookeri," by Samuel Stone; others by John Cotton and E. Rogers; and a further commendation to the reader by Thomas Goodwin, April 17, 1648.
To some copies of the work (published with added t.-p.: A survey of the summe of church-discipline ... In two books. The first, by Mr Thomas Hooker ... The second, by Mr John Cotton ...) John Cotton's "The way of Congregational churches cleared" (q.v.) was appended. Mr. Cotton's treatise continues the answers to Rutherford, begun by Mr. Hooker in pt. 1, chap. 10, which ends on p. 139, the next page is blank, and chapter 11 follows, numbered 185 with a new signature. It is thought that it may have been the intention of the editors to incorporate Mr. Cotton's work in this division of the Survey, between p. 139 and 185.
