A volume from the private library of the Reverend John Henry Augustus Bomberger (1817-1890), founder and first President of Ursinus College.

Mason was a Dutch Reformed, later Presbyterian clergyman who was president of Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, in 1825 when the infant Reformed Church Seminary was on that campus under the leadership of Lewis Mayer.

A similar Reformed view of infant baptism to that expressed here by Mason is to be found in Bomberger's own book, Infant Salvation: In its Relation to Infant Depravity, Infant Regeneration, and Infant Baptism, Lindsay & Blakiston, Philadelphia, 1859.

The book contains an inscription: "Rev. Dr. Bomberger, from his friend and brother [signature]."
