Book excerpt: Dr. Dudley (1903-1999) was General Secretary of the Synod of North Carolina of the Presbyterian Church in the United States from 1951 to 1971. For many years he collected material on the Presbyterian Church in North Carolina prior to 1813 when the new Synod of North Carolina was formed. This included the background and history of the earliest Reformed settlements in the state, histories of the first Presbyterian congregations, information on all Presbyterian ministers known to have preached within the later Synod's bounds, and details of church governance and expansion through 1813. The book he was writing has been completed for publication this year. The volume also includes his history of the Synod of North Carolina from its beginning in 1813 to reunification of the northern and southern branches in 1983." -- publisher's letter.
