    ☞ The Author begs leave to return thanks to all his Subscribers, for the genteel encouragement they have given him; but more especially, to the inhabitants of St. Croix, of all denominations, who have subscribed for not less than 450 books; which is, indeed, but one among many instances of respect and civility he has received from them since his residence among them. He heartily wishes the work was more wor∣thy of their acceptance, and hopes, that his distance from the press will apologize for any little errors or inaccuracies which may appear in the work.
