In connection with the musical part of the work, the Editors arc especially indebted to Mr. U. C. Burnap of Brooklyn, New York, who has not only permitted the use of tunes from his " Hymns of the Church," but given valuable aid by indicating sources of desirable material, and by contributing new tunes; to Rev. C. L. Hutchins, Rev. C. S. Robinson, D. D., Mr. Hubert P. Main, and others, who have kindly given information as to the authorship of many tunes; to Messrs. George W. Chadwick, Fred. Field Bullard, Louis Adolphc Cocrnc, Newton Fitts, Mrs. C. B. Hooke, Rev. C. E. Nash, D-D..and Mrs. Mary A.

Permission has been secured, by purchase, of The Biglow and Main Co., and of The Oliver Ditson Co., to use several tunes of which they control the copyright. The ownership of all copyrighted tunes is indicated in the Alphabetical Index.
The Editors recognition of obligation in connection with this work would not be complete without mention of a great sum of indebtedness to the many friends, both clergymen and laymen, who, by friendly suggestion and by sympathetic encouragement, have influenced the character of the work and lightened the labor of it. Not a single suggestion from any source has been intentionally disregarded. In their effort to prepare an acceptable Book of Spiritual Song, the Editors have striven throughout to follow the dictates of judgment and not merely the suggestions of their own preference; and it is upon the fact that they have had a multitude of willing and intelligent helpers that they base their hope that "Church Harmonics, New and Old" may not wholly fail to fulfil its important mission.
