Excerpt from Authoritative Christianity: The Third World Council Which Was Held 431, at Ephesus in Asia
There are still at least eight or ten volumes more of the set, and next to the Bible they are the most indispensable works in the World to the theological student. The translator has spent much time on them since 1864, and can put a volume to press every year till they are all out. But he is nearly 72. These facts, it is hoped, will induce some to come forward and furnish the necessary means to pay print ers and binders. Otherwise they may never see the light. The subscription list does not pay half the monetary cost even.

Excerpt from Authoritative Christianity: The Third World Council Which Was Held 431, at Ephesus in Asia
Nearly nine years have passed since the issue of Volume I of Ephesus. Lack of sufficient means to publish with has been the cause of the delay. Works of this kind appeal mainly to scholars, and hence their patronage is limited for the most part to a small, but select class, and hence they do not pay in money, and need help to defray the necessary expense of putting them before the people.
On the first volume the translator sunk about half his small capital; on the second the generosity of friends saved him from loss, and the same generosity enables him to put out this whole Volume II., and it is proposed to publish in this way the volumes which remain of the VI Councils so long as means come in to do so. The work is the only one in English which gives the Acts in full. A late work by the creature-invoker Percival gives Definitions, but I think that it will be generally deemed by sound Anglicans that a man of his creature worshipping type, condemned as he is by the Six Synods, and by necessary implication, deposed and anathematized by the decisions of Ephesus is unfit to edit it or any other Ecumenical utterance. Even his fellow-idolatrizer of The Church Quarterly Review for Jan. 1901, confesses that "the execution of his work is by no means so good as it ought to have been;" that "the attempts at supplying the historical setting of the Councils; their constitution and proceedings are most inadequate," and that "a lack of exact scholarship is often evident, and in matters of detail, there are actual blunders." Furthermore, he does not cover the field of this work, because he does not give the Acts, that is, Minutes, in full. And they are necessary to a complete understanding of the Definitions. He is since dead in his sins.
There are still at least eight or ten volumes more of the set, and next to the Bible they are the most indispensable works in the World to the theological student. The translator has spent much time on them since 1864, and can put a volume to press every year till they are all out. But he is nearly 72.
