The New York Bible and Common Prayer Book Society was established in the year 1809, being the first institution in this country, (except the Bible Society in Philadelphia,) for the gratuitous distribution of the Scriptures. The Auxiliary New York Bible and Common Prayer Book Society was established in the year 1816, and obtained from the legislature an act of incorporation for twenty years, at the expiration of which time the parent and auxiliary societies united together under the original title of "The New York Bible and Common Prayer Book Society." The present is therefore properly their thirtieth consecutive report, 1838. |
