    have taken place in the teaching of the Church on the Holy Communion from its establishment and appointment down to the present time . Following

    the lines of Dr . Hebert ' s two volumes published same- years ^^ ago r ^ . j by Messrs . Seeley , ' The — lord — ' s ^

    Supper : History of Uninspired Teaching / Dr . Jacob traces the changing theories of the Sacramental rite and of Eucharistie doctrine through

    the writings of the Early Fathers and the growth of the materialistic conception which culminated in the mediaeval doctrineand then he deals fully

    , with the history of the Reformation period and of the Communion Office in the various editions of the Prayer % J Book , closing LJ with a — brief note on

    more recent utterances . As to Dr . Jacob ' s own stand-point , it will be sufficient to quote his remark — — — .. __ - — on _ .... Dr _ . _ Puse __ ^ / s teaching __ _ ^_ j , in order __ __ .- to — _ show —_ , __

    that he practically regards the extreme Anglican view as identical with the Roman . These are his words after quoting Dr . Pusey ' s definitions :

    the value of his book will be considerable to men of all parties , even if they decline to acquiesce in his particular theories .
