Abstract
Justin Perkins letter to B.B. Edwards in which Perkins writes regarding Edwards' remarks on the Researches of Messrs. Smith and Dwight in the January 1835 issue of the Biblical Repository and Quarterly Observer. He provides his positive opinions on the book, author, and its content. He relays a story in which an Armenian priest thought that the book must have been written by a native Armenian ecclesiastic due to its accuracy. He expresses his desire for the book to soon be presented to the attention of the American public through an able review in Edwards' periodical.
