This Book has been prepared by a Sub-committee, the convener of which was the Rev. Dr. Stephenson. The Musical Editorship has been entrusted to Mr. Alfred Rhodes, A.R.A.M., to whose skill and interest the Committee are much indebted. It is right to say, however, that Mr. Rhodes is not responsible for the selection of the tunes.
It is obvious that in a book intended for use in great popular gatherings, many compositions must be included which do not meet the demands of severe musical taste. Their utility for the purposes contemplated in the publication is the justification of their presence.
The unusual metrical form of very many of the hymns has called for many new tunes. In supplying them the Committee are happy to have been able to secure the assistance of several able composers.
