After a minimal amount of intense research, (I looked up Wikipedia) I have discovered to my utmost astonishment and delight, that Mr. James A Wylie, noted historian and minister, writer and compiler of that most celebrated of scholarly historical tomes, "The History of the Waldenses" as well as a similarly entitled book "The History of Protestantism", was indeed Presbyterian, not Seventh Day Adventist. Oh, and he was also Scottish! I also discovered that he lived during the 19th century, in Scotland, before any SDA missionaries had set foot upon Scottish shores. So it would seem likely that the esteemed Mr. Wylie was completely unaware of the Adventist movement in America, unless of course he had received letters to that effect, a notion I can neither prove, nor disprove.
